He is member of applied mathematics societies and has published numerous articles in leading academic and gaming industry as well as applied mathematics journals. He is also author of “Probability Guide of Gambling” book. No formal background in mathematics is necessary for reading this book, although comfort with some probability and set theory notions is helpful. In most cases, you’ll need some college math to follow the formulas here, but this is not a requirement, because the numerical results are collected in tables at the end of each section. The work is packed with formulas, algorithms and tables. Its primary goal is to allow the reader to quickly find the odds for own hand and for opponent’s hand, in order to improve his/her betting decisions. Every type of card distribution is tabulated in a logical, consistent, and comprehensive manner. The complete methodology and all the calculations are shown, so it teaches the player how to calculate probability for any situation for every stage of the game, even for other card games. You will find here the real odds, returned by precise mathematical formulas and not by partial simulations that most software uses. The book contains much new and original material that has not been done previously and provides a full coverage of Hold’em odds: – Immediate odds (pre-flop odds, flop odds, turn odds, river odds, odds of improving specific hands); – Long-shot odds (odds of achieving specific card formations by river) for own hand, in after-flop and after-turn stages; – Long-shot odds for opponent’s hand (odds for one and at least one of your opponents to achieve specific card formations by river), in after-flop, after-turn and after-river stages; – Other odds. Concrete examples of calculations and usage of tables are attached to each section. A special chapter of examples is included for a good understanding of how to count and compare the odds for expected own card formations and the odds of possible higher formations of opponents. Such information is a must for any Hold’em player, either beginner or advanced and this book is a trusted and professional source.
