This new, expanded, fully updated and revised, edition of 'Secrets
of Professional Tournament Poker' is a landmark in poker
publishing. Originally published in two volumes in 2011 and 2012
this was both a critical and commercial success. Over the last
decade, the understanding of poker has changed dramatically and
this new edition fully reflects current thinking on the game. This
book will give readers a thorough understanding of everything they
need to know about playing tournaments and Jonathan Little is
undoubtedly the person best qualified to impart this information.
The book is split into seven sections: 1) How Tournaments Work
–This explains why tournaments are a highly profitable form of
poker and examines the basic concepts that need to be mastered. 2)
Playing Deep Stacked –This deals with situations where (most)
players have stacks of 50 big blinds or more. All situations are
dealt with including pre-flop and all three post-flop streets.
There is further information on general topics at this stack depth.
3) Playing Mid Stacked –This deals with situations where the
basic stack depth is between 27 and 50 big blinds. These situations
are tricky because with the shorter stack, players are often going
all-in. This means that very clear adjustments are required
compared to the deeper stack strategies. 4) Playing Short Stacked
–This section focuses on play below 27 big blinds. Now play is
almost exclusively focused on the possiblity of players going
all-in. Knowing the correct ranges and plays here is vital to
maximise your chances for tournament survival. 5) The Late Stages
–As the prospect of serious prize money looms, huge adjustments
need to be made. How to play on the bubble and concepts such as
risk premium and the Independent Chip Model are fundamental to
maximising your chance of landing a major prize and they are all
thoroughly explained. 6) Hand Examples –This will test your
understanding of everything you have learnt so far. 7) Other
Considerations –You can improve your tournament results by also
working on your general attitude and approach. This section
encompasses all the non-technical aspects of playing, including
learning, the mental approach, tells and practical tips. Jonathan
Little has dedicated himself to educating players who are keen to
improve their poker strategy, and in 2020, he was awarded the

Poker – the definitive guide to modern tournament play.
