Download or read book Aces and Eights written by Ralph Estes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-03-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our images of the big names and places of the Old West often come from the tales of gunfights and violence that were sensationalized by dime novels and yellow journalism in the 19th century and the myths that came from those stories live on today. But in reality many of these fabled characters of the Wild West were gamblers first and gunfighters second— more invested in poker than in the momentary fury of the shootout. Aces and Eights tells story of the role of poker in the lives of these legends, and offers a portrait of the places where they lived and frequently died. This book offers both the “facts” of these lives and the true tales of the game and the gamblers—and the entertaining “tall tales” that have survived to this day.

Book Synopsis Reasoning About Knowledge by : Ronald Fagin
Download or read book Reasoning About Knowledge written by Ronald Fagin and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-01-09 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reasoning about knowledge—particularly the knowledge of agents who reason about the world and each other's knowledge—was once the exclusive province of philosophers and puzzle solvers. More recently, this type of reasoning has been shown to play a key role in a surprising number of contexts, from understanding conversations to the analysis of distributed computer algorithms. Reasoning About Knowledge is the first book to provide a general discussion of approaches to reasoning about knowledge and its applications to distributed systems, artificial intelligence, and game theory. It brings eight years of work by the authors into a cohesive framework for understanding and analyzing reasoning about knowledge that is intuitive, mathematically well founded, useful in practice, and widely applicable. The book is almost completely self-contained and should be accessible to readers in a variety of disciplines, including computer science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy, cognitive science, and game theory. Each chapter includes exercises and bibliographic notes.

Download or read book Poker For Dummies written by Richard D. Harroch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em Poker is America’s national card game, and its popularity continues to grow. Nationwide, you can find a game in progress everywhere. If you want to play, you can find poker games on replicas of 19th century riverboats or on Native American tribal lands. You can play poker at home with the family or online with opponents from around the world. Like bowling and billiards before it, poker has moved out from under the seedier side of its roots and is flowering in the sunshine. Maybe you’ve never played poker before and you don’t even know what a full house is. Poker For Dummies covers the basics. Or perhaps you've played for years, but you just don’t know how to win. This handy guide will help you walk away from the poker table with winnings, not lint, in your pockets. If you’re a poker expert, you still can benefit – some of the suggestions may surprise you, and you can certainly learn from the anecdotes from professional players like T.J. Cloutier and Stu Unger. Know what it takes to start winning hand after hand by exploring strategy; getting to know antes and betting structure; knowing your opponents, and understanding the odds. Poker For Dummies also covers the following topics and more: Poker games such as Seven-Card Stud, Omaha, and Texas Hold'em Setting up a game at home Playing in a casino: Do's and don'ts Improving your play with Internet and video poker Deciphering poker sayings and slang Ten ways to read your opponent's body language Playing in poker tournaments Money management and recordkeeping Knowing when and how to bluff Poker looks like such a simple game. Anyone, it seems, can play it well – but that's far from the truth. Learning the rules can be quick work, but becoming a winning player takes considerably longer. Still, anyone willing to make the effort can become a good player. You can succeed in poker the way you succeed in life: by facing it squarely, getting up earlier than the next person, and working harder and smarter than the competition. Foreword by Chris Moneymaker, 2003 World Series of Poker Champion.

Book Synopsis Poker Tales by : William Earnshaw Heise
Download or read book Poker Tales written by William Earnshaw Heise and published by . This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Texas Hold 'Em is one on the most popular card games being played in the world today. But author William Heise thought it odd that there was not a lot of literary fiction being written on poker. As he writes in his introduction: "Golf and baseball have given us hoards of books in the 20th century on the life lessons to be learned from their respective games.... But when it came to poker, I found that most recent literature on the subject was confined to the rough-and-tumble world of poker written by those who had experienced the up-and-down lifestyle for themselves." Noting that poker relies on bluffing as much or more than on the cards themselves, Heise has written a series of short stories which trade on this unique aspect of the game. In his frame narrative, a kid (known only as 'the Kid') breezes into Las Vegas the day after his 21st birthday and sits down at a table with an old-timer (known only as 'the Old-Timer'). The Old-Timer proceeds to tell the Kid a series of short stories on seemingly unrelated matters: * Tales of actors and directors * Tales of riverboat gamblers and chess masters * Tales of mobsters and Texas cheats * Even a tale of the Devil himself Each poker tale is worth reading on its own, but the question that arises in the frame narrative becomes whether the Old-Timer is simply the kindly old man that the Kid takes him to be, or whether he has a more devious purpose in mind when he invites the Kid to sit down and play this simple game with him.
