Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways. These deeply-ingrained habits lead them to make mistakes. The problem is that these situations won't often arise at the table by chance - you have to make them happen. Exploitative Play in Live Poker is a ground-breaking work that teaches you how to create the circumstances where your opponents will be likely to blunder and how to exploit them when they do.

There is a lot of money to be made at small-stakes no-limit hold'em because...surprise, surprise...most of the players aren't very good. However, few players understand exactly how to exploit these games. Competent players who generally play larger stakes will, of course, beat them. But they won't beat them for nearly as much as they ought to. Why? Because they don't understand how to adjust correctly.

Most players struggle with AK due to small leaks in their strategy. So Optimizing Ace King (OAK) doesn't look to give you a bunch of memorized plays and tactics. Instead, OAK shows you how AK fits within your strategy and ranges. This prepares you for playing AK, among other hands, in a variety of spots and under a variety of conditions. James "SplitSuit" Sweeney and Adam "W34Z3L" Jones co-wrote this book to take an in-depth look at poker strategy through the lens of a single hand. Concepts include 3betting, 4betting, cbetting, barreling, GTO vs. exploitative play, and more.

Secrets of Professional Tournament Poker, Volume 1 dealt with the fundamentals of play. Volume 2 builds on this base and examines the highly complex issue of how to handle the different stages of a tournament. At times the best strategy is to play loose, create problems for your opponent and thus keep accumulating chips. At other times an ultra-tight strategy will be the most profitable. Understanding when to "change gears" is a highly developed skill that requires a great deal of study and experience.

Publisher's Summary
Have you ever wondered how the best poker players in the world successfully bluff on a regular basis? Many amateurs make the mistake of mindlessly attempting sporadic bluffs because they do not fully understand when and why to bluff.
In this audiobook, world class poker professional Jonathan Little (over $6,300,000 in live tournament winnings) explains when and why to bluff in order to maximize your chances of success.
Bluffs demonstrates how to widen your ranges and force your opponents to make costly errors. In small and middle stakes cash games and tournaments, you will often find yourself playing against conservative opponents who play in a straightforward manner. Against these players, you can play a wide range with the intention of playing aggressively post-flop.
Numerous examples, featuring the play of an amateur player who got out of his comfort zone to put these tactics to the test, make it clear when you should play aggressively and the things you should consider as you do so. Each situation is explained with attention to your hole cards, stack size, position, and your perception of your opponent.
You will learn how to apply the concepts discussed in Bluffs in the real world, allowing you to win more money from poker.

Expand your tools at NL.
Little teaches us expaned preflop play + several post flop bluffing strategies. He teaches a merged or linier 20-25 % opening range preflop. He teaches a polorized 3 bet range preflop. Also, examines good squeeze opportunities.
Post flop he examines how and when to c bet flops, and good opportunities to stab at turns, and rivers.
He uses hands from a student who has used the principles to transform from a NITT to a LAG.
Little is great at explaining concepts, and delivers on his goal to give you more opportunities to take down more pots.
