Texas Hold-em Made Easy was developed after many years of experience playing on-line as well as in local tournaments. It is a numbers-based approach similar to what Charles Gorem created in the early 1900's for the game of bridge. It outlines a system for giving a value to the cards held by a player. This provides specific guidance direction in playing any given hand. This guidance is modified as the hand develops. Before developing this approach Walt had witnessed how often players over-valued their hand which often resulted in hugh losses or even all their chips. He felt a more systematic approach could be very useful and created what is described in this book. After he first created this technick he tested it in a number of tournaments and then made some refinements. It is a numbers-based system that is relatively simple and thereby easy to master.The book not only provides a systematic approach but also covers many of the other facets of playing this game such as bluffing, trapping, mucking and the all-in bet. It also includes special valuations like the value of position, pocket pairs and connected cards. In some cases the approach to a given hand needs to change such as stack size of the player as well as other players. And, there are differences in playing in live tournaments versus on-line. There also are some practice exercises.
