Description
Joe Navarro is a former counterintelligence officer specializing in nonverbal communications and behavioral analysis with nine-time World Series of Poker Champion. Phil Hellmuth presents the next evolution in poker strategy - becoming a human lie detector at the tables. Success in poker is part luck, part maths, and part subterfuge. While the maths of poker has been refined over the past twenty years, the ability to read other players and keep your own "tells" in check has until now been mostly learned by instinct and practice. However by using Navarro's techniques illustrated with Hellmuth's examples, you will be able to decode and interpret other players nonverbal communication while concealing your own. You will essentially become a human lie detector and a feared player.
