zerosum79 (Other): Strategy Organization

Many poker players want to learn faster and improve the quality of their game, but do not have the tools to effectively organize what they know and new concepts into an organized strategy. The result is a patchwork strategy where oftentimes concepts are missed or misapplied in the wrong situations.

In this video I describe a simple technique called “Mind Mapping” which can be used to organize your poker strategy, review concepts, and add new concepts to your arsenal. You will also learn to refine concepts adding new detail as necessary and visualize how specific techniques fit into your global strategy. It will take a little up front work, but the result will be a tool that you can use to significantly accelerate learning and improvement in your game. This video describes the mind mapping in terms of a specific SNG play, but is universally applicable to any format or structure of poker.
