Texas Hold'em Made Easy

<p>Texas Hold-em Made Easy was developed after many years of experience playing on-line as well as in local tournaments.  It is a numbers-based approach similar to what Charles Gorem created in the early 1900's for the game of bridge.  It outlines a system for giving a value to the cards held by a player. This provides specific guidance direction in playing any given hand. This guidance is modified as the hand develops.  </p><p>Before developing this approach Walt had witnessed how often players over-valued their hand which often resulted in hugh losses or even all their chips.  He felt a more systematic approach could be very useful and created what is described in this book.  After he first created this technick he tested it in a number of tournaments and then made some refinements. It is a numbers-based system that is relatively simple and thereby easy to master.</p><p><br></p><p>The book not only provides a systematic approach but also covers many of the other facets of playing this game such as bluffing trapping mucking and the all-in bet.  It also includes special valuations like the value of position pocket pairs and connected cards.  In some cases the approach to a given hand needs to change such as stack size of the player as well as other players. And there are differences in playing in live tournaments versus on-line.  There also are some practice exercises. </p>
