POKER MATH

[VITOS]

No, not necessarily. You can win money in poker without even looking at the math of the game. However, to become a consistently winning player without studying the mathematics of poker game is very difficult. Moreover, without knowledge of the mathematics of poker you will seriously limit your potential.
Thus, learning poker math is not significant, but to ignore studying it would be a very stupid decision.

I just finished reading a book by Alton Hardin called Essential Poker Math. It was very basic and easy to understand. I learned the basics of pot odds, implied odds, equity and +/-EV. If you want a basic understanding of Poker Math. I would recommend this book. Next I'm moving on to a book called Kill Everyone by Lee Nelson. Looking to improve my Tourney skills.

Good luck on your Poker Journey

Thank you for advice

Unless You consider the odds, over a long period of time will lose money. Of course, there will always be players who don't care about the odds, and who will make the call too often. Sometimes these players will be lucky and they will win the banks, however, in the majority, they will lose. In addition, they will fold in cases when, in fact, the chances are pretty high. This error is less common, however, and it leads to loss of money, if often to repeat it. On the contrary, if You use our recommendations, you will be able to avoid mistakes and gain the advantage over opponents.: JD4:

Yes it is important but don't feel you have to be a genius and calculate it at the table. You can learn some short cuts. One easy way to get an approximate on your card equity at the table is to multiply the number of your outs by 2 if you can see one card and 4 if you are guaranteed to see 2 cards (all in situation).

You need grade level math to succeed in poker. If you can't do these level of math, even if you have skills in other areas, it's doubtful you'll be successful at the game.

mathematical game

Many conversations, that a poker is a mathematical game, and it is a game with incomplete data. It can sound some difficult, but it really so. At most initial level, winning in a poker is begun with the choice of initial hand. If I am included in a bank with the best hand more often, that выиграваю more often than rivals. therefore mathematics on the second place.

Poker is a combination of a mathematical game, psychologyand luck. You can calculate your winning chance, losing chance, outs, odds etc, but if you are bluffing or trying to read a player you are on the psychology level and last but not least its a cardgame, when you don't hit your winning cards or get a bad you can see thats not always being in 1sigma range and you are often far away from being gauss distributed
