Description
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the bond and option markets were dominated by traders who relied on experience and intuition. By the mid-1990s, a revolution led to the rise of quantitative analysts who applied mathematics to trading, transforming it into a scientific endeavor.
Similarly, in poker, decades of dominance by "road gamblers" with intuitive skills in reading opponents have given way to a new wave of players. These modern players use computer science and mathematical tools, challenging traditional approaches with quantitative analysis and game theory.
This book aims to introduce quantitative techniques and game theory as applied to poker, making complex mathematical concepts accessible to players without extensive mathematical backgrounds.
