Description
Most PLO books advocate a highly conservative game-plan – this style is outdated and will get you crushed in today’s games.
Mastering Pot-Limit Omaha is different. It is a unique and remarkable book, outlining a whole new approach to the game:
- teaches you an aggressive style
- provides you with clear guidelines on how to develop your game-plan and adjust to your opponents
- teaches you how to analyse board textures – the key to success in PLO
Herbert Okolowitz (Huck3be1n) and Wladimir Taschner (Insyder19) are professional poker players, PLO experts and sought-after coaches on Pokerstrategy.com. They will explain in detail:
- pre-flop hand selection and pre-flop hand dynamics – including analysis of wide 3- and 4-bet ranges and the theory behind optimal bet-sizing.
- how to use equity shifts on turn and river to your advantage and how to bluff correctly.
- how to understand the game better and develop a holistic view of the play: connecting pre-flop decisions to action on later streets.
Plus much more…
A clear game-plan and the right mind-set will improve your win-rate tremendously and give you the edge against your opponents.
Mastering Pot-Limit Omaha will give you that edge!
I can confidently say it’s the best poker book on pot-limit Omaha that I’ve ever read. The book has helped me cultivate an aggressive style and understand some dense concepts such as game theory and frequencies. It also paints a great picture of the current PLO landscape. So far it’s the best book on PLO I’ve read and I recommend it to anyone looking to take their PLO game to the next level.
Any aspiring PLO player shooting for high stakes should pick up this book and really spend time in thought when going through the book. It’s well written in clear, no-nonsense language which makes it a pleasurable reading experience. Nutblocker highly recommends the book!
