UCLA maths professor Duncan Palamourdas addresses the question of why a
professional poker, beats an amateur poker player via a journey through
human psychology, game theory, easy-to-understand mathematics and even
philosophy. Topics include: - Understanding the instinctive but
unprofitable tendencies of inexperienced players.- How to identify what
a mistake actually is in poker - and how to exploit it.- Why poker does
not revolve around bluffing.- The great impact of variance in poker and
how to account for it.- How to develop a consistent approach that allows
you to play like Alex and not Bobbie.
