Many poker games eventually become shorthanded, and the pros know that shorthanded games give prepared players the opportunity to quickly win big while opponents make crucial, costly and easily exploitable mistakes. Whether playing online or sizing up the survivors over a Vegas poker game, renowned poker professionals John Vorhaus and Tony Guerrera go beyond the maths and theory, and into the realm of real profit, providing all the inside tips and unique talents needed for successful shorthanded play.

The first in a series of gambling books that will give readers a warrior approach to poker, leading journalist and poker columnist John Vorhaus begins by changing a player's state of mind, from a passive reactive player to a strong, proactive player, and then shows him or her how to dominate the game and crush opponents. Giving players the psychic edge and practical tools to play like an expert, as well as teaching them how to spot the weaknesses and strengths of other players, and how to use them to their own advantage, this book offers the attitude needed to win the game.

With tongue planted firmly in cheek, noted novelist and poker raconteur John Vorhaus pulls off the devastatingly rare "self-spoof," going to town on his and Annie Duke's bestselling book, DECIDE TO PLAY GREAT POKER. Study the ways of the drunken master (an Ascended Stairmaster). Correlate drinking frequencies to bluffing frequencies. Learn not to drink with Finns. Also contains the complete rules of Hold'em War and important breakthroughs in strip poker. The good news about drinking and playing poker is if you're a really, really, really, really bad player to begin with, drinking won't materially hurt your game. Same with this book: If you have no game to begin with, this won't make it worse.
