The Theory of Poker

A Professional Poker Player Teaches You How To Think Like One

By: David Sklansky

Narrated by: Brian Arens

This audio edition of David Sklansky's classic discusses theories and concepts applicable to nearly every variation of the game, including five-card draw (high), seven-card stud, hold 'em, lowball draw, and razz (seven-card lowball stud).

This audiobook introduces you to the Fundamental Theorem of Poker, its implications, and how it should affect your play. Other chapters discuss the value of deception, bluffing, raising, the slow-play, the value of position, psychology, heads-up play, game theory, implied odds, the free card, and semibluffing. Many of today's top poker players will tell you that this is the book that really made a difference in their play. That is, these are the ideas that separate the experts from the typical players. Those who listen to and study this content will literally leave behind those who don't, and most serious players relisted multiple times. This is the best audiobook ever created on poker.

This audio edition of The Theory of Poker is skillfully narrated by Brian Arens, a listener favorite, and includes brand new commentary from the author.

Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
