Lederer's lessons are designed to speed up the process by which a home poker player gains enough confidence and skill to venture into the world of casino cardrooms. He does put much emphasis on no-limit tournament play, an aspect of the game that has gained tremendous interest in the last two years.Lederer explains how to conduct a home-based tournament (the principles can also be applied to conducting the tourney in a bowling alley, pool room, country club situation). One of the world's younger-generation world-class poker players (sisters Annie and Katie are nationally known as well, though the latter prefers poetry to poker), Lederer takes the role of a teacher-tutor in explaining everything from choosing chip denominations and why; creating a cut card; why plastic cards are best; how and why to structure different blind (ante) levels; shuffling to speed the game up; and explaining format differences between home play and casino action. His explanations and examples of pre-flop action; side pots; the dangers of "falling in love with aces" and what the beginner should know about "traps" are done clearly and structured in a logical, easy-to-follow format. He guides the novices through what might be for some a land mine of decision-making including how to disguise the true strength of your hand; developing a "good feel" for proper odds; why certain high cards have great value; understanding concepts like "outs" and "drawing dead."He offers advice on why it's dangerous to draw for straight or flushes with a pair on the board; how to play the turn (fourth card); and the river (final card).
