Pot-Limit Omaha: Understanding Winning Play
Starting with Monopoly at age 6, William Jockusch never saw a game he didn t like. Since then, he has become addicted to risk, chess, Dungeons and Dragons, wargames, various computer games, bridge, Magic: The Gathering, and, most recently, poker, while somehow finding time between his games to earn a PhD in math from MIT. These addictions have spawned many friendships and two careers to date. One is his poker career, which in turn spawned this book.In addition to his passion for poker, William s interest in games also gave him a passion for game design. For seven years, William worked for Wizards of the Coast, where he helped create and improve new cards for Magic: The Gathering, a card game created by fellow mathematician Richard Garfield.Applying his game design skills to poker, William created Underpoker, a variant deck which can be used for common forms of poker such as Omaha and hold em.William has two children with his wonderful wife, Maria. He lives in the Seattle area.
