Advanced Concepts in No-Limit Hold'em: A modern approach to poker analysis
No Limit Hold’em is an extremely complex game that is difficult to learn and even more difficult to teach. Many authors have produced works on this topic which are either too simplistic or far too complex to be of any practical use. Hunter Cichy has a unique ability to present advanced concepts in a manner that any committed student can understand and implement. In this cutting-edge work, Hunter outlines a straightforward, no-nonsense approach to poker analysis. His philosophy is built around the five key elements of poker theory * pot odds * implied odds * pot equity * fold equity * minimum defense frequency. Hunter examines each of these topics in depth and explains how they interact. By combining optimal opening ranges with clear explanations of math and game theory, Hunter presents a powerful strategy that is easy to implement and difficult to exploit. A careful study of the approach outlined in Advanced Concepts in No Limit Hold‘em will undoubtedly take your game to a higher level.

This book uses way too much poker slang and jargon. This may be fine for people who understand it but it makes it very hard to follow of you do not. The author should have a glossary to define his terms. I have read about five or six poker books over the years and this is the only one o couldn’t follow. Perhaps I am not advanced enough.

საინტერესო იყო, თუმცა რამდენიმე ხელის განხილვა სადავო.

Unlike other poker books, this book is full of practical examples that definitely will take your game to the next level. Can't recommend enough.

This was more practical than I originally thought. Lots of useful pre-flop analysis followed by extensive post flop play analysis. Very good.

One of the less hyped offerings from D&B Poker this year was Hunter Cichy's Advanced Concepts in No-Limit Hold'em: A Modern Approach to Poker Analysis.
In the absence of advanced poker players on staff, what with former associate editor Dan Podheiser having leveraged his skills into an actual career, the book sat around for a bit before anyone got up the courage to read it (it was published in June. Sorry, D&B). I admit, I was worried that it was mostly going to be pages of impenetrable mathematical formulas—there doesn't seem to be much of a market for mid-level poker books; most books I've seen are either at least somewhat introductory or they're for pros.
