This is my next book to read and I'm sure I'll read it many times as I've read Hilger's other book 'Internet Texas Hold'em' about 8-10 times (no lie). Hilger's 1st book is my bible and the best book to learn Hold'em from (internet or live) in my opinion.

Here's what others have wrote about 'Texas Hold'Em Odds and Probabilities'.

This is a book which has to be read and re-read, with salient ...

Is this only for NL holdem? No, although the ...

The Vent, Rant and Rave Forum is a place for all ITHers to come and share their badbeat stories, painful losses or gut-wrenching eliminations from tournaments. It is also a place where the ITH players can come to revel in their victory or enunciate their latest wins. Some come here only when feeling the cold fingers of poker rejection.

Go figure! The Vent, Rant and Rave forum and Piscivorous go together like Abbott and Costello, Peanut Butter and Jelly, or Death and Taxes.

Obviously, when first approached by Ciaran for a moderator position, I scanned the list and found no one had the guts to take this forum over.

This thread would also be an excellent place for you to tell Cybrarian that you think ...
