About this listen

Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways. These deeply-ingrained habits lead them to make mistakes. The problem is that these situations won't often arise at the table by chance - you have to make them happen. Exploitative Play in Live Poker is a ground-breaking work that teaches you how to create the circumstances where your opponents will be likely to blunder and how to exploit them when they do.

To achieve this you will need to put to one side starting-hand charts, balance, and GTO (Game Theory Optimal) play. Instead you will incorporate new concepts that may well place you outside your comfort zone. However, your style will now be forcing the other players at the table outside of their comfort zone and, unlike you, they won't know how to adapt.

Learn how to:

  • Counter the auto-continuation-bettor
  • Develop a powerful donk-betting strategy
  • Use the overbet, the check-raise, and the three-barrel effectively

As well as being a highly successful player, Alex Fitzgerald runs a poker consultancy that serves more than 1,000 professional poker players in 60 countries. As part of this work, he has very likely trawled through more hand history databases than anyone else. This gives him a unique insight into how players really play, especially when placed under pressure and forced into unfamiliar situations.

actual perspective from an experienced player.

the author is extremely experienced and it's played the game for quite some time. Simple description she provides of the most complex situations suggest she's been doing this for many many years both successful and unsuccessful night. Cleanly admits he is not the best player, but certainly one with a lot of experience and understanding. Excellent book.

The best poker book in more than a decade

A very quick read with a lot of practical tips for live play tournament Texas Holdem.

I really like the autobiographical passages and respect Fitzgerald for admitting that he flamed out as a poker pro.

Play to have fun.

Great Book

A lot of great advice in here, good for intermediate players who have a solid foundation but still a lot to learn. Only drawback is that the hand quizzes don't work very well in audio format as they are hard to keep track of in your head.

Would recommend!

Really good listen. Some nuggets of wisdom in here that stuck with me that I’ve applied to low stakes live cash. Somehow this book was able to plug at least a few leaks in my game, and I’m winning!!!

My favorite nugget of wisdom:
“Let yourself get outplayed… I get outplayed every day playing poker.”

Now I’m folding my weak top pairs vs raises from donks and seeking out better spots.

Only gripe:
I did not care for the hand histories, as most of them were in live Mtt format. He should have just said how many bb’s effective we are preflop instead of having us divide 4300 by 300 or what have you.

But no matter. Still 5 stars and highly recommended for beginner- intermediate live players with some knowledge of the game.

Buy it, listen and apply it.
