Further Limit Hold 'em: Exploring the Model Poker Game
Philip Newall has been a professional online limit hold em player for the last seven years. Starting out from scratch, he worked his way up, becoming a regular in some of the highest stakes games played on the European networks. An established author, his first book, The Intelligent Poker Player, was published (also by Two Plus Two) in April 2011. That book shows how his approach to limit hold em fits into his wider views on poker theory, and shares his views on how professionals should optimize their careers. He writes regularly for the Two Plus Two Magazine and is a regular participant in the Two Plus Two forums.His varied academic interests continue to inspire his approach to poker: Philip received a BSc in Economics and Statistics from University College London (UCL) in 2009, completing the Chartered Financial Analyst program in June 2011, and is currently studying towards an MSc in Cognitive and Decision Sciences again at UCL.
