Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker
About this eBook
poker tournaments has led to an intense focus on the theory of
tournament poker. The result was a re-examination of old ideas and the
introduction of many new ones. The fundamentals of no-limit hold em did
not change, but the game was revealed to have more depth than many older
players could have anticipated. As a result, no-limit hold em
tournament play has evolved into a newer, tougher, faster game, and good
players have had to evolve to keep up.
In Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker,
Dan Harrington takes a fresh look at the world of no-limit hold em
tournaments. He explains how the game is currently played, and what you
ll have to do to be a successful tournament player in 2013 and beyond.
The topics examined include how to play different hand types preflop,
when to 3-bet and 4-bet, how to analyze the flop, turn, and river, and
how to size your bets. Dan also explains how to adjust your strategy as
your stack size grows and shrinks, and how to handle the new breed of
super-aggressive players that you ll meet at the table (and, if you
want, how to play that way yourself).
Dan Harrington won the Gold
Bracelet and the World Champion Title at the Main Event of the 1995
World Series of Poker. And he was the only player in recent history to
make the final table in back-to-back years 2003 and 2004 considered by
cognoscenti to be the greatest accomplishment in WSOP history.
