Low-Limit Texas Hold'em is the fastest-growing casino poker game. But new players often come to the poker rooms completely unprepared to play a winning game. Even so-called "veteran" players are often long-term losers at the game because they have never taken the time to study how to play or analyze their own individual games. As author Bill Burton clearly shows in Get the Edge at Low-Limit Texas Hold'em, a savvy low-limit player can turn a profit at this game by exploiting the weaknesses of his or her opponents, and developing his or her own strengths. In Get the Edge at Low-Limit Texas Hold'em, you will learn: -- The basics of proper play; the rules; the protocols -- What starting hands to play -- and what starting hands to throw away -- The concept of "table position, " and how that affects what hands to play -- The proper times to check, raise, fold, and check-raise. -- When to bluff and to semi-bluff -- How to win in Low-Limit Hold'em tournaments -- The proper bankroll requirements for the type of games you play in -- How to size up your opponents and their playing styles -- The most common mistakes made by novice or unskilled players. -- How to "read" your opponents' tells to gain the advantage. -- Money-management techniques to handle your bankroll. In addition, Bill Burton explains his own fascinating journey from the kitchen to the cardroom and how, in just a few short months of intensive study and practice, he became a winning player.

Hold’em poker is fast becoming the most popular gambling game in the world. There are even several different shows on television that do, to some extent, promote it. Millions of dollars change hands every day, 24-7, 365 days a year. Some players are able to take advantage of this trend and make money playing. Most who play do not win over the long haul. Many who are now losers could be winners with just a little more knowledge and understanding of the game. That is the purpose of this book: to provide direction in an effort to allow losers to get themselves out of the losing category and make it possible for them to glean the knowledge to become a winner. Winning playing Hold’em poker is not all luck. There is no doubt about it, it takes skill. A thorough knowledge of the game is necessary in order to acquire that skill.
