predator06 0 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I took a game theory course over 10 years ago in college. Can anyone recommend any current game theory textbooks? I know there aren't any specifically about poker, but maybe one with similar cases. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I just dropped my game theory class. I don't have my textbook with me, but it seemed alright. I'll put up the name/authors when I get home. Link to post Share on other sites

navybuttons 16 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Bill Chen?yeah. bill chen co-authored it. i didn't think it was out yet. i'll have to look into it.OP: if you have no memorable study of game thoery then the book to get is called "The Compleat Strategyst: Being a Primer on the Theory of Games of Strategy" by J.D. Williams.the book imo is hands down the most important work of poker literature (though it doesn't discuss poker). Link to post Share on other sites
