  <default_description>Pot-Limit Omaha is a fascinating game which is rapidly increasingly in popularity on the back of the current poker boom. However, there is a dearth of quality material giving advice on how to handle all elements of this complex form of poker. Until now...&lt;i&gt;Secrets of Professional Pot-Limit Omaha&lt;/i&gt; is one of the first books to analyze medium- and high-stakes PLO in great depth. The author, long-time successful PLO cash game player &lt;b&gt;Rolf Slotboom&lt;/b&gt;, reveals key information that has never appeared in print before. The following are just some of the topics that are discussed in this ground-breaking book:        &#8226; A revolutionary short-stack approach      &#8226; Adjustments for big-stack play      &#8226; A study on the proper bet size      &#8226; Correct seating position      &#8226; Blocker play      &#8226; The bare ace bluff      &#8226; Exploiting your opponents&#8217; specific weaknesses     Finally, the practice hands and the chapter on hand match-ups offer tremendous theoretical and practical advice. This book is a must-read for anyone who wishes to play PLO successfully.</default_description>
