The Poker Player’s Bible

Subtitle: How To Play Winning Poker

Based on The Cover

This guide to card-playing, by poker expert Lou Krieger, encompasses nearly every facet of poker. It begins with an introductory chapter that lays out the rules of poker, followed by a detailed ranking and explanation of poker hands, from a Royal Flush down to One Pair. The book then progresses to explore the mechanics of the game, shedding light on strategic concepts and illustrating how a deep understanding of strategies distinguishes casual players from their more serious counterparts. Subsequent chapters offer guidance on how to differentiate between winning and losing hands, calculate odds, execute bluffs, recognize an opponent’s bluff, and decide when to raise. Krieger focuses on the five most popular poker variants: Texas Hold ’em, Omaha, Omaha/8, Seven-card stud, and Seven-card/8. The concluding chapters provide resources for further exploration of poker, including recommendations for online play websites and a glossary of betting terminology. The book is enriched with over 300 color illustrations that present common poker scenarios.
