Hand reading is the single most important no-limit holdem skill. If you can figure out what hands your opponents are likely to have, you will make consistently good decisions. Youll find bluffs other players miss. Youll find value bets other players miss. And youll also be able to anticipate and avoid trouble before youre knee-deep in it.
Some people say hand reading is a feel skill. That you can only learn it through experience.
Theyre wrong. Not that experience isnt vital. It is. But if you think that youre just going to figure it all out by playing hours and hours of holdem, youre likely mistaken. The learning curve is very steep.
Thats the bad news. The good news is that How To Read Hands At No-Limit Hold'em can leapfrog you up the learning curve. Not only will you be reading hands better from the moment you finish your first read-through, but you will also learn how to develop your skill during every session you play in the future.
