Come on my man. You made it this far into the internet, surely you can type grinders manual into google and see what comes up.

However this time I'll do you a favor since I can't get on your case then NOT help you.

If you're looking to play cash then I highly recommend The Grinder's Manual. Does an excellent job of covering the default strategy of most situations you will encounter and explaining when to deviate from those defaults.

Any poker math is kind of situational; you need to have a good understanding of poker in order for any of these sources to be interesting. That being said, I love poker and also maths, and reading that I've enjoyed have been:

If you're just trying to learn poker, there are some great youtube tutorials and The Grinder's Manual (https://www.amazon.com/Grinders-Manual-Complete-Course-Online-ebook/dp/B01GBFF890/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1482117534&sr=1-1&keywords=the+grinders+manual)
is an incredible introduction, although a bit pricy.

Hey, welcome to poker! Yeah, this question gets asked a lot but don't worry, we've all been there! Don't listen to all of the grumpy people on this sub, if every poker player was like them, poker wouldn't be as fun as it is. You should definitely know about our FAQ. It's a little hidden but you'll probably find some information relevant to you (if you dig a little there are actually several links to new player guides).

I'll also give you a few tips:

  • Start by making sure you know all the rules. You should also know the hand rankings like the back of your hand. There should be no hesitation as to "what wins, the flush or the straight? 4 of a kind or straight flush? what happens if we both have the same hand?"
  • Play-money poker is a great way to learn and practice those things, but don't expect to learn good strategy from there.
  • Once you're comfortable with the previous steps, you'll probably want to start playing with real money. Start small and be warned, there is a steep learning curve. You should probably try out the different formats. Figure out whether you prefer tournaments or cash games, because you'll want to focus on one or the other in the next step.
  • Now that you're playing real money, it's probably a good idea to learn some strategy. There are tons of resources out there, some free, some very expensive, and some great, some terrible. (so do your research before you spend tons of money on training) Beware of outdated advice. If you prefer tournaments, study tournaments, and if you prefer cash games, study cash games. It's better to be good at one than average at both. You may want to change in the future, don't worry. I used to prefer tournaments as a beginner but I eventually decided I liked cash games better.
  • Live poker is incredibly fun, but the stakes are way higher than online, so it's not a bad idea to play a fair amount online before you sit down in a poker room with hundreds of dollars in front of you. (Or look for / start some home games)

    If you want to learn cash game strategy, here is where I would start:

  • From the Ground Up, a video course that's seriously amazing. It's done wonders for my game. Also comes with one free month of Run it Once Essential, one of the best training sites.
  • If you're more of a book person, The Grinder's Manual is an excellent resource, by Peter Clarke, the same guy who did From the Ground Up. It's also a good companion to the course, but optional. The course is more recent.

    Once you're ready to move beyond that, training sites are the way to go. There are many of them, and a new one pops up every now and then, but Upswing Poker and Run it Once are two currently good (and very popular) ones.

    I won't speak on tournament resources because I honestly don't know what the best ones are. I'm sure with a bit of research you'll find what you need if that's the way you want to go.

    Feel free to reach out to me with any questions, I'm always happy to help out a new player. Good luck on your poker journey!

I was able to read this with a kindle unlimited trial membership.

u/Fossana · 3 pointsr/poker

The Grinder's Manual came out in April and I'm about halfway through it, but I can already say it's one of the top three best poker books. The author is an instructor on DeucesCracked. It's a bit pricey ($60), so hopefully you live in the U.S. and you can take advantage of the 30 day kindle unlimited trial, which lets you read any book for free on the kindle store. I've read Applications of No Limit Hold 'em, Easy Game, Kill Everyone, Harrington on Hold 'em, The Theory of Poker, Professional No Limit Hold 'em Volume I, etc., so I'd say I'm qualified to rate the book. Essentially it's a comprehensive overview of 6-max cash game strategy, and it doesn't skip any streets. It goes through thought process more rather than discussing vague theory ideas.

I post a variant on this comment whenever this question gets asked. Still think the Grinders Manual is an amazing place to start even though I'm thinking some of the 3b strategy is a little dated (iirc)

free

I wrote this guide with my coach. It's a decent place to start, though it is quite long and will take you some time to go through it. I think for beginners the UTG range might be slightly loose as ATo could be better as a fold

Free with KU trial, otherwise 10 bucks

You can download Kindle Unlimited free trial and borrow "The Grinder's Manual", which ends up being free as long as you cancel trial, or else its about 10 bucks a month

heres a link (not affiliate) https://www.amazon.com/Grinders-Manual-Complete-Course-Online-ebook/dp/B01GBFF890

More expensive ($10-$100) Training sites

If you have money to spare then one of the best training sites is upswingpoker.com for beginners as it walks you through a progression from starting hands to post-flop.

If you can't afford Upswing then try Run It Once essential and post in r/poker asking which videos to start with, people are generally pretty helpful
