Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker
Based on The Cover
In the past, poker and poker tournaments have seen a surge in popularity, leading to a renewed focus on tournament poker theory. This has resulted in a reevaluation of traditional concepts and the emergence of new ones. While the basics of no-limit hold ’em remain the same, the game has proven to be more complex than previously thought. Consequently, no-limit hold ’em tournament play has evolved into a more challenging and faster-paced game. In his book, Harrington on Modern Tournament Poker, Dan Harrington provides an updated perspective on no-limit hold ’em tournaments, offering strategies for success in the current game. Topics covered include preflop hand play, 3-bet and 4-bet strategies, flop, turn, and river analysis, bet sizing, and adapting to changing stack sizes and aggressive players. Harrington, a World Series of Poker champion, is renowned for his back-to-back final table appearances in 2003 and 2004.
