Rip Van Winkle. Texas Hold'em poker had been almost dormant on the American scene. The World Series of Poker tournament had slowly grown from a single table of ten players to slightly more than a hundred players, but it had required decades to reach that level - and then something happened. The hole-card video camera was installed at a final table, and suddenly Texas Hold'em exploded - first in the United States, and then throughout the rest of the world. In the past, being a spectator at a poker tournament was almost as exciting as watching grass grow, but now that viewers could see exactly what every player at the table was holding, the game of Texas Hold'em took off like a scalded dog. Today, players across the nation are fantasizing about making Final Table at the World Series of Poker and being in front of the television cameras. You can too by using the Pocket Scoring System to win at Texas Hold'em.

| Poker is all about winning money.
If you can win big and lose little, you can supplement your income at the poker table. But winning isn't easy. New Texas Hold'em players complain that the game is easy to learn but extremely difficult to play. The rules of the game are simple to comprehend, but the application of those rules can take a lifetime to command.

Here's how Hold'em is played:
1.
Each player receives two cards (known as the "hole cards") face down,
and a round of betting ensues.
2. Three cards (collectively known as "the
flop") are dealt face-up on the table, and another round of betting
ensues.
3. Then a fourth card (the Turn, or 4th
Street) is dealt face up on the board, followed by another round of
betting.
4. Finally, a fifth card (the River, or 5th
Street) is dealt face-up on the table, and a final round of betting
ensues.
5. Each player combines the five community
cards on the
board with his or her two hole cards to make up the best possible
five-card hand.
Why Another Poker Book? Texas Hold'em is the deepest card game ever known. For example, the value of a given hand diminishes as more players come to the table. A starting hand like Ace-Five-suited that's worth a raise at a three-player table should be folded without thinking in a full ring game of ten players. A hand like Jack-Ten-suited that would normally be folded under the gun (first to act on the first round of betting) is well worth calling a single bet to see a flop and can be worth a raise if you're on the button in a short-handed game. Again, the rules are simple, but the application of those rules is the very picture of complexity.

To Play or Not to Play. Newcomers to the game find it difficult to decide whether to play a hand or fold it - and the financial implications of those two alternative actions are far-reaching. You don't want to invest in a losing hand - and you certainly don't want to fold a winning hand. How do you tell the difference? The pocket scoring system was designed to take the guesswork out of playing Texas Hold'em. Old-time players like Texas "Dolly" Brunson and T.J. Cloutier learned the game from decades of hard knocks. Now anyone can become a top player in a fraction of that time. Rather than devoting years (and tens of thousands of dollars) to master the game, the serious Hold'em player can perhaps attain the level of a master player in as little as a year. How? The alternatives are to either quit your day job and play poker full time or buy a copy of For Winners Only and use the Pocket Scoring System to compress your education - and conserve your capital.

Mark
Bellgrave of Akron, Ohio said, "Every
time I step off this system, my chip stack goes down. Once I get back
on the Pocket Scoring System, my chip stack grows again. I wish I had
known about the Pocket Scoring System 10 years ago when I first started
playing Texas Hold'em!"

What is the Pocket Scoring System? It's a simple, easy-to-learn and easy-to-follow system that guides the Hold'em player through the intricacies of the game. In short, it takes the guesswork out of Texas Hold'em and allows the novice to quickly hone the necessary skills to consistently go home a winner. It's fast, affordable, and painless - and it works. But why read about it when you can experience the system for yourself. Merely click on the Buy Now button below and get started!
The Hard Way or the Easy Way? The author learned Hold'em the hard way by: (1) reading a couple of dozen books on the subject; (2) playing hundreds of thousands of hands in a software poker simulator; (3) playing thousands upon thousands of hands on the Internet, (4) playing numerous tournaments and ring games in brick-and-mortar casinos, and (5) spending lots of time reflecting on his 20 years of neighborhood poker-playing experience. He did it the hard way. You can do it the easy way by reading "For Winners Only: A Pocket Scoring System for Beating Texas Hold'em."
Truth in Poker? Some authors claim that if you read their books, you will never again have a losing session. In all honesty, this is just NOT the case. The best of all pro players have losing sessions, losing weeks, losing months, and occasionally, losing years. Why? Because luck, like reality, comes in clumps. No poker methodology can ever guarantee 100% success. It's just not possible. With the Pocket Scoring System, our claim is that when you have a losing session, you'll lose much less and when you have a winning session, you'll win much more. Plus, you'll be in the winning category for the rest of your days.

Bob
Giuli of San Francisco, California had this to say about the
Pocket Scoring System: "I
had never played poker in my life but had the opportunity to read a
copy of "For Winners Only." (A friend of mine had to give me a list of
what-beats-what printed out on a card from a poker deck because I
didn't even know the difference between a flush and a full house.) I
read the book quickly the first time and then went through it a second
time with a bit more care until I began to understand the nuances of
the game. After reading the book I watched a couple of poker
tournaments on TV and found that I was able to accurately critique a
game that I had never played before. To make a long story short, I
sought out a neighborhood game and sat down nervously to play - and
tripled my stakes the first time out. The system is so simple that even
a beginner can win with it - although I'd suggest that the ideal reader
should have some prior knowledge of poker before investing in the
system. If a novice like me can use the Pocket Scoring System and win
big, anyone can do it too!"

Tom
Evans of Scott's Valley, California said, "Many
thanks and a very high recommendation for your book! I've never even
come close to this before but I literally won all the chips in my
Friday night poker game. Following your system I was able to win a high
percentage of the pots I entered and I avoided the ones that would have
just taken my money. I kept in mind your advice that paying to see the
flop with poor hole cards may only get me interested in playing a
losing hand. I folded hands at one point for over an hour patiently
waiting for cards with the minimum points to play. BTW, the formula was
easy to calculate in my head whereas memorizing typical tables of
starting hands wouldn't have worked. As a result, I felt very confident
in my decisions and that certainly allowed me to focus on other aspects
of the game - including insight into my competition. I'm looking
forward to my next Texas Hold'em session."

Prove it to Yourself. Read the book, watch a few poker tournaments on television, and score the hands of the players from the various positions at the table. Mentally play the hands according to the guidelines in the book and see how you would have fared in each hand. Here's one of the guidelines that the author calls The 4/5 or Fold Rule. Simply stated, it's this: Don't continue to play the hand past the flop unless you have 4/5 of a winning hand.
A Simple Rule. The 4/5 or Fold Rule is a simple little rule to learn, and if you incorporate it into your play, you'll play fewer hands - and win more of the hands you do play. Another way to express the rule is: If you don't hit the flop, stop. The book is chock full of rules for sound Hold'em play.
The Phenomenon is Exploding. Casino tournaments are typically filled to overflowing. Million-dollar tourneys on the Internet are no longer rarities, but frequently occurring events. And this is just the beginning. Soon the corporate sponsors will enter the market, and the price of poker will definitely go up. For Winners Only is the quickest way to advance your poker skills.

Murray
Goldenhirsch from
Delray Beach, Florida had this to say about For Winners Only: "Using
this Pocket Scoring System for only 3 weeks, I went from $1,000 to
$3,876. All I did was play the hands that this book told me to play
according to the chart on page 79. I really enjoyed being promoted to
Table Captain and being the player at the table with the largest stack
of chips!"

How
does the system compensate for the changing number of players at a
table?
The minimum pocket score requirement to enter a hand is reduced as
players leave the table and is increased as the table fills up. No
other Texas Hold'em methodology takes both table position and number of
players into account.
How
can I get hurt over this transaction?
You've got absolutely nothing to lose. The worst thing that can happen
is that you purchase a copy using your credit card, download the book
and the premiums, and get an immediate refund from us for the same
amount if you're not 100% delighted. You can't lose. You can only win.
(That's why the book is entitled, For Winners Only.)
How
come this book isn't being sold in normal book distribution channels?
From inking a deal to seeing a book in print often consumes 12 to 18
months, and the poker market is literally exploding on the American
scene. The author wanted to get this information out to the growing
world of poker players as fast as possible. The quickest way to put
information in the hands of those who seek knowledge is to distribute
it over the Internet.
