(Part 3) Top products from r/poker

I own quite a few of his webinars. https://i.imgur.com/lXowkzD.png

Overall they are good, but I would consider them supplemental. I think it depends on where your game is at now. The videos have been more about recognizing the previous teachings he's done. I'd highly recommend his books as well

Mastering small stakes I think is excellent.

Though at this time I would highly recommend split suit's Core product. https://redchippoker.com/core/

At $5 a week, I think its affordable and very dense in terms of what it covers. This product would probably do you better.

You need to change your mentality and your view of poker. You can't play with scared money. Read some good poker books to hone your strategy.

• Easy Game
  
• Application Of No Limit Poker
  
• The Mental Game of Poker
  
• Every Hand Revealed
  
  Those are a good start. Lose the fear. You can't just play the cards, you need to read your opponents and play poker. One thing I do at home is deal out 9 poker hands face up and see how I would play each one and deal out all the streets see how you would play each hand. What if you played one hand differently? What if you raised or re-raised a particular hand? How would that affect the other hands? That helped me out a lot.

I would consider both to be outdated, interesting reads to learn how people used to think about poker but not a priority.

If your friend is nerdy enough (not scared by multiplication and the word percentage) https://www.amazon.com/No-Limit-Hold-em-Advanced-Players/dp/1880685590/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1550768137&sr=1-2&keywords=janda#reader_B071W92Y8Q this is probably what I'd buy him, it's leagues above most books. Don't be fooled by the 80s style cover, Janda's material is based on game theory which is the "modern" way of thinking about poker. The reason it got a 4 instead of a 4.5 is probably because math allergic people won't be able to read it

If not https://www.amazon.com/Exploitative-Play-Live-Poker-Manipulate-ebook/dp/B07KPKNGM6/ref=pd_sim_351_4/135-8225113-7074201?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07KPKNGM6&pd_rd_r=e26db4d5-35f9-11e9-8361-31a05a5f3960&pd_rd_w=TudBf&pd_rd_wg=QzYrh&pf_rd_p=90485860-83e9-4fd9-b838-b28a9b7fda30&pf_rd_r=64DN7ZTD95NBH4719356&psc=1&refRID=64DN7ZTD95NBH4719356#reader_B07KPKNGM6 this one seems good based on the table of contents and sample.

The second one is a safer bet for sure btw, you need to be really into poker and have studied basic stuff to enjoy the first one

I mean it matters what your looking for?


This is probably a great book if your really worried about drilling down math at the table.

https://www.amazon.com/Poker-Workbook-Math-Geeks-Doug/dp/1512133124/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8


This is a good book if you want a math based conceptual understanding of GTO poker and how they affect how you should play.

ahaha funny edit :p

> Ever statistic in that entire system is in the green (where it should be) and still playing only 10NL i seem to be bleeding buy ins.

Meh, imo those reports aren't very useful. I believe they only track frequencies, maybe you're not picking good spots?

Can you give us some stats, graphs (w/o your sn), maybe some hands where you felt "lost" or you were in a tough spot? A bunch of guys here are good at spotting leaks/errors.

> Sklansky's Theory of Poker and Kill Everybody

Although I think KE has a cash game section (never understood why, but wtv) I think you're a bit behind the times for cash games... You're better off picking up a cash game book written the last 4-5 years! I personally like this one by Ed Miller and co.

If you're talking about guide books, the most popular strategy book by far is Super System by Doyle Brunson. It came out in the '78 though, and some say it's a little outdated. I'm reading Daniel Negreanu's 2008 book right now and there's a lot of insightful content. Those are the two strategy books I have and would highly recommend both of them.

Hand Cranked Card Shuffler (2-Deck) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004DALR14/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_5GH.AbE08W6EB

It works decent but can be finicky on non brand slightly off size decks. I find its about laying the split deck in nice and being consistent with the right frequency in your cranking speed.

Read Moshman's book on Sit N Go Strategy.

Wealth of information and practice examples if I recall correctly. It explains exactly how your strategy should shift gears as the tournament progresses and evolves.

It presents shortstack/endgame strategy as a whole different beast, and it takes commitment to the reasoning behind it to execute correctly. It can be hard to go into shove-or-fold mode with almost any two cards, but there are situations that require it...and particular exceptions and pitfalls as well.

Loved this book by Collin Moshman: https://www.amazon.com/Sit-Go-Strategy-Collin-Moshman-ebook/dp/B002XQ2AG6/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8

Ed Miller's is fantastic

https://www.amazon.com/Hand-Cranked-Card-Shuffler-2-Deck-x/dp/B004DALR14
I use this at my homegame because no one else deals fast enough and I think I'd be more able to see cards if I manually shuffle. (I am not very good at shuffling) It works well and is quite quick if you use your off hand to catch the cards instead of using the plastic thing.
