In the second
video of this series, Howard Lederer takes you the next step towards
mastering the game of no limit Texas Hold’em. While the first
video taught the basic fundamentals of playing serious Texas Hold’em,
it included a very basic thirty-minute introduction to the game,
which only left about an hour to get into strategy. The bulk of
that video teaches advantageous pre-flop strategy, and provides
the fundamental concepts with which you can practice until you get
a level of comfort with the game.
This video goes
to the flop and beyond, providing numerous strategic elements to
add to your game. Howard Lederer begins the video with a warning
that this video is not intended to be watched one right after the
other with the first volume. In fact, he warns that doing so may
actually hurt your game, as you need to learn to walk before you
run. Learn the fundamentals of volume one, and then practice those
fundamentals over and over. When you’ve got the fundamentals
down, this video helps you to take the next step towards becoming
a more feared and unpredictable player.
