Hold'em Excellence
by
Lou Krieger
Written by Haunted Poker for exclusive
use.
This is an overview of Limit Hold'em beginning with how
to play the game and starting hands. Besides the basics,
Krieger delves into some important strategic and
psychological topics. If you're new to the game you
this is a pretty comprehensive guide that I don't have a
problem recommending.
For the opening section, new players will become
acquainted with the general rules of Hold'em and
housecleaning on how to play the game. If you've already
picked up the game, you can gloss over this section.
Following that, you'll receive quality advice from
Krieger on playing specific hands and have the
opportunity to review hands.
Perhaps one of the most valuable sections for beginners
in this text is the starting hand standard graphic. If
you're playing online, you can keep this next to your
computer at limit ring games. This chart is color-coded
and broken down into early, middle, and late position to
help you even further.
Instead of delving directly into strategy, Krieger does
a good job of introducing beginners into the game. His
writing style is easy to follow and he intersperses
important psychological topics with actual gameplay
advice. Overall, this is a strong overview on
how to develop a strong game of hold'em.
