I picked up suject book used mainly because it was in it’s third printing.  Does Ken Warren understand low stakes Hold’em?

Answers:

He might but he doesn’t understand how to calculate odds very well… Although many of his thoughts are ok.. He makes many errors in his calculations of how much a hand is favored over another. And, Caro made mistakes in his odds calculations in Super System.  So what? Yes, he does understand low-limit poker.  A couple of the sections aren’t well written and might be misleading, but overall it’s a good book.  It’s the only book on the market that specifically targets the most common spread limit structure 1-4-8-8 with 1/2 blinds. The odds mistakes aren’t really important.

I’m beginning to understand and utilize many of the important aspects needed for a strong game.  I still have not found the best place to learn to calculate odds.  Someone posted something a day or two ago that was helpful.  It explained how you use odds to decide if your hand merits a call.  More information like that and how to calculate odds is what I’m looking for. This was the first poker book I ever purchased. It produced a remarkable improvement in my game. I’ve gone on to read several others that have added to my arsenal of knowledge. If Warren’s book is the first book you’ve studied than it should produce similar results.The fact that you purchased a poker book and want to improve your game by studying is what produces advances in your play. BTW, I’m been reading Carson’s digital book and I’m finding parts to be very interesting and enlightening.
