Current Episode
This week, Jim Reid leads the panel through a forum post by @Michael about a tricky spot with JJ. While battling it out against each other in the nightly home game, the panel discusses calling versus raising, stack sizes, preflop shoving ranges, and how there is no 'right' way to pay JJ preflop! Come sign up for a free account at rec.poker today and post a question in the forum for the panel to review! Link: https://rec.poker/forums/discussion/to-fold-or-not-to-fold-jj/
Episode 240: Duncan Palamourdas on Mathematics of poker
Duncan Palamourdas specializes in the mathematics of poker and poker education. His poker classes at UCLA always fill up early and have long waiting lists. He is also an author at Upswing Poker, Poker News, Card Player and Winning Network. Despite his impressive academic credentials, Duncan’s popularity is a product of his love for simple language and metaphors. Profitable poker play essentially revolves around correct risk/reward optimization. This is a complex topic and Duncan’s great strength is that he explains it in simple terms without resorting to technical jargon. He is the author of “Why Alex beats Bobbie at Poker: Developing a Fundamentally Sound Approach to Poker”. You can connect with Duncan on Twitter at @askthemathdr or through his website askthemathdr.com
