The Poker Mindset

Often we see poker books that are about the other player. How to identify their tells, how to play against their cards...etc. This book offers us something new, how to set our OWN mind to be in the right frame to win. This may be as important a defense against your own tells, and against your own misjudgements, as any book on tells, or pot odds.

The Poker Mindset deeply explores vital topics that most poker books only touch upon: - Tilt: What it really is, why and when you are most prone to it, and how you can avoid it. - Bankroll: A complete examination of bankroll management from a technical, but more importantly, from a psychological and emotional viewpoint. - Opponents: How to determine your competitors' mental and emotional processes so that you can dominate, out think and outplay them. - Downswings: Every poker player experiences them, but you will truly understand and be armed against low ebbs when they occur. - Bad Beats: The Poker Mindset will enable you to overcome the trauma of bad beats and losing big pots.

Sounds like a valuable weapon in our poker book arsenal.
