It is based around what has become known as purposeful practice. Purposeful practice is the gold standard for anyone who wishes to take full advantage of the remarkable adaptability of the human brain and is the fast track route to improving your poker skills.This book will give you:* A clear theoretical understanding of the science of purposeful practice* Numerous techniques by which this can be adapted to improvement at poker* Specific exercises designed to create an infallible Plan for Poker Improvement
