Tournament Poker for the Rest of Us Steve Selbrede

Tournament Poker For The Rest Of Us teaches a loose-aggressive style of no-limit hold'em. It is aimed at the experienced player who is familiar with the general concepts it takes to be a winning player. It is not aimed at the superstar pro who relies on his brilliance to pull off plays the rest of us only dream about. Part One covers the basic concepts necessary to play strong tournament poker the way I believe it should be played. Some of these basic concepts are discussed in novel and controversial ways, especially ICM, chip utility, tournament variance and game theory. Additionally, tournament statistics are presented for the first time here. Part Two is where you will learn a tournament LAG playing strategy, building on the concepts discussed in Part One. We begin by creating a deep stack playing strategy founded on the principles of tournament variance and chip utility. Then we learn how to play a perfect GTO strategy when our stacks are less than 30 big blinds. This book has been published with support from CardsChat.com and the CardsChat community.
