The Science of Poker deals with limit as well as pot-limit Omaha, Texas Hold'em and Seven-Card Stud. It is divided into four parts. The first part consists of a general discussion of the three primary skills of Poker: people, probabilities and money. The remaining three parts give a detailed account of starting hands selection and simple methods for working out the probabilities relevant to Omaha, Texas Hold'em and Stud. In addition, the book analyses in detail over one hundred examples of the most common situations of 'after the flop play' for Omaha and Hold'em and 'beyond the fourth street' play for Seven-Card Stud
