Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'em study group
Hey Matt just curious but why is this discussion posted in the smallest NL forum of all available ones? Is Volume 1 geared more towards the 25cent/50cent NL player and is Volume 2 the one geared toward the 2/5 5/10 player?

Man, I ordered from Amazon and was looking forward to getting this early next week. Looks like that's not happening... [/ QUOTE ] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

[/ QUOTE ] first third of volume 1 (up to REM) is geared towards entry-level players. last two-thirds are for all limits, although consistently successful players in MSNL and HSNL and the pros in SSNL will know a lot of it. plus limit lines are artificial. it all depends on who's sitting, and the concepts that will get you through are the same. |

So you prefer going the SSNL raise of 4xbb+limpers instead of just pot pot pot ? but since you are targeting the blinds more than anything in 6max, will going broke once in a while with an overpair vs. giving the blinds a better price (thus allowing them to stay tight) really be a good trade off. Assumes vanilla 2+2 tags on your left, in other words people what you feel are worse then you, when playing with wide ranges .... so in this scenario, do we have a case, where you might want to only make 3xbb in order to force them to open Does your book cover the above btw ??? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] hi gelford thanks for the praise in the other post! i think i need a couple glasses of wine to understand your post here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] blind stealing definitely skews preflop raising strategy a bit. is that what you're getting at? and yeah you will have to get all in for 100bb some times if your opponents are any good. no free lunch anymore. here's a thought for you: it's been argued that in early position you should raise less to allow opponents to call with a wider range of hands (since you are raising with a small range of mostly premium hands). however, that needs to be balanced with SPR concerns, which the discussion i believe has ignored. |

Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'em study group
Great idea for a study group, Matt. I should be getting my book at the beginning of next week so hopefully I'll have it finished and ready to go for the study group.

[/ QUOTE ] I got the same, and therefore ordered it at .com. It's even cheaper for me (the Netherlands). Prices for two copies, converted to euro's: .com : 40E .couk: 50E .de : 56E and one book: .com : 21E .couk: 28E .de : 31E I guess the country's minimal wage has more influence on the book price than the physical distance does [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. Amazon.com now has a delivery estimate of 23 to 30 August, 2007. |
