Crushing Low Stakes Poker - Mike Turner

Most poker books and training videos on tournaments and Sit 'n Gos are by professional poker players who play at the highest stakes. Whereas you can learn a lot from studying them, they won't always be as useful to you when you're mainly playing at the low stakes.

Playing low stakes games against beginning and recreational players requires a whole different strategy and approach than playing high stakes games against the best of the best. The Crushing Low Stakes Poker series is focused specifically on low stakes play and teaches you the proper strategy to consistently crush low stakes Sit 'n Gos.

• how to play optimally during all the different stages of a low stakes Sit 'n Go: low blinds, medium blinds, high blinds, push/fold, bubble and heads-up; and
• an overview of the best and most popular poker tools and sites that can help analyze and improve your game as well as get an edge over your opponents.

In this book you will find multiple push-fold charts, both for 3 to 6-handed play and Heads-Up play. The charts let you make mathematically correct endgame decisions so you can maximize your winnings in low stakes SnGs. You will find extensive hand examples in the book that illustrate how to apply concepts and ideas in practice.
