Don't be a jerk. He gave you a good answer. If you're too lazy to search, don't ask.

Here's another good link... recently posted here. http://www.fullconta...5843&highlight=Just FYI... I wasn't intending to flame you there. The reason I gave you the answer I did was because your question was way too broad. If you want a good answer to a specific question, this is a great place to ask. If you think there is a leak in your game, or want to see whether a raise or an overcall is a good idea... these guys will explain it to you very well. But when you ask a question that is too broad you will likely not get you the answer that you are looking for.IMHO, equally as important to remember is that there are a number of very good poker players who post on here, and they put a lot of time into writing about a variety of subjects that you might be interested in. Why ask them to rewrite something that they have already written when you could do a search for the subject just as easily?Honestly though, I would say you might want to just go to your local bookstore and pick up a book. Many folks will recommend Sklansky's SSHE, but that's a fairly advanced book. Just persuse the books until you find one that is at your level, and handles the subjects that you are interested in.

Welcome to the forum.
Now that's funny.Seriously though, asking for a "refresher course" on poker odds and statistics is like...I don't know...ah fuck it, it's just ridiculous.
You got a date Wednesday, baby!

go buy small stakes holdem by Ed Miller, David Sklansky, and Mason Malmuth.
i saw him at the riverbank. he was breaking bread and giving thanks. with crosses made of pipes and planks. leaned up against the nitrous tanks.
he said take a hit. hold your breath and i'll dunk your head. then when you wake up, you'll be high as hell and born again.
