Inhaltsangabe

Pot-limit Omaha to the untrained eye looks similar to Texas hold ’em except that you start with four cards instead of the standard two. But this complex form of poker has many differences and it continues to grow in popularity as the poker boom matures.
This book starts with the fundamentals of hand valuation and continues up through advanced concepts. Topics include preflop hand strength, short stack play, wrap hands, blind stealing, marking aces, playing on the flop, which flops are good for bluffing, position and check-raising, pot size manipulation, blockers, and much more including numerous sample hands.
This book is a discussion of winning play, and more importantly, winning thinking on all streets. It should be of value to almost all pot-limit Omaha players from the beginner to the more advanced, and every effort has been made to give you the best information possible, with nothing held back.
Two Plus Two Publishing and William Jockusch are proud to bring you Pot-Limit Omaha: Understanding Winning Play.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Starting with Monopoly at age 6, William Jockusch never saw a game he didn t like. Since then, he has become addicted to risk, chess, Dungeons and Dragons, wargames, various computer games, bridge, Magic: The Gathering, and, most recently, poker, while somehow finding time between his games to earn a PhD in math from MIT. These addictions have spawned many friendships and two careers to date. One is his poker career, which in turn spawned this book.In addition to his passion for poker, William s interest in games also gave him a passion for game design. For seven years, William worked for Wizards of the Coast, where he helped create and improve new cards for Magic: The Gathering, a card game created by fellow mathematician Richard Garfield.Applying his game design skills to poker, William created Underpoker, a variant deck which can be used for common forms of poker such as Omaha and hold em.William has two children with his wonderful wife, Maria. He lives in the Seattle area.
