Kill Everyone took the poker world by storm when it was first released in 2007. Its perfect blend of real-time experience, poker math, and computational horsepower created new concepts and advanced strategies never before seen in print for multi-table tournaments, Sit-n-Gas, and satellites. In this revised and expanded second edition, Kill Everyone adds even more ammunition to a tournament-poker-player's arsenal. In addition to groundbreaking analysis of fear-and-fold equity and equilibrium, plus the presentation of optimal strategies for the bubble, the end-game, and heads-up play, this second edition adds 50 pages of incisive commentary from the hottest tournament-poker player in the world, Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier, and a new chapter on short-stack cash games to go with the original discussion of playing in short-handed cash games. With a Foreword by 2006 World Series of Poker champion Joe Hachem, annotations by Elky, and solid math-based strategies from Lee Nelson, Tysen Streib, Steven Heston, and Mark Vos, Kill Everyone packs more poker brainpower between two covers than any book to come before it.
Very good book about live tournament, as i wanted to read more (after Dan Harrington classics). It is quite more aggressive than Harrington, or maybe am I not enough. Anyway, there are a lot of hands ranges charts, which is nice if you have the time/capicity to read and study it. The mathematical aspect is well developped. CSI and power number are useful concepts (despite CSI is M-like). There are also nice elements of life-related influences to poker: health , nutrition, concentration etc. I also loved Elky comments: one of the best MTT player in the world.
Great advice From successful players in the circuit, this book links methodology with experience in tournaments globally. The case studies on Ivey are particularly insightful.
This was a nice first step into some of the new thinking going on about the game. It is an interesting experience to know a topic really well and get to see a paradigm shift happen. Not everyone who gets old gets to go through that experience, but I'm sure everyone who goes through that experience feels old.
Super recomendable a todos aquellos jugadores que quieran subir su nivel.. y que no rsten conformes con la teoria basica. Este libro cambia la forma de ver a tus rivales y tu juego
A bit of a technical read, but worth the bother for serious poker players. I found the section on when to shove in relation to the blinds and when to call worth the price of the book.
An interesting second book on the idea that less experienced players can use a "push or fold" strategy before the flop to negate the advantage pros have after the flop.
