mark_999 0 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 So my girlfriend wants to learn how to play poker texas style with no limits. I´m probably not that good of teacher so anyone know a good book or website that would be a great introduction to poker thats simple and won´t confuse her too much? Link to post Share on other sites
Suited_Up 2 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Getting Started in Hold'Em is a good beginning book, not NL only though, but most of the strictly NL books are a bit more in depth.http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Started-Hold...0532&sr=8-1 Link to post Share on other sites

Napa_Don 688 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I mean, you could teach her to play, but just make sure you keep it simple since she's a girl. Link to post Share on other sites

Flushgarden 0 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Have her watch you play a little and explain to her why you're doing what you're doing. After a while have her play and you sit beside her and give her advice. I've spent a lot of time doing this with my wife and she is pretty damn good for the number of overall hands she has played so far...better than I was at the point she's at now.

Mattnxtc 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 sign her up at stars and she should get a free $5...my wife got that and has been able to screw around with it for a long while now. Link to post Share on other sites

blakheart 3 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I think Phil Gordon's little green book is the best intro to unlimited holdem, imho. Link to post Share on other sites
Jam-Fly 8 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Can't believe no ones posted it yet.Honestly, that was one of the key books I've read in my poker career. I taught me the rules of those tricky games like Stud and Omaha 8. Epic...Don't buy something like LGB, if you just want to teach her the rules, I'm sure there's plenty of easy-to-read guides on the interwebz Link to post Share on other sites
