Recently, however, players have been gravitating to another, even more complex form of hold'em - no-limit cash games. Harrington on Cash Games: Volume II, continues where Volume I left off. In sections on turn and river play, Harrington explains why these are the most important streets in no-limit hold'em, and shows how to decide when to bet or check, when to call or fold, and when to commit all your chips. In later sections, Harrington shows how to play a looser and more aggressive style, how to make the transition from online to live games, and how to extract the maximum profit from very low-stakes games. Volume II concludes with an interview with Bobby Hoff, considered by many the best no-limit cash game player of all times, who shares some of his secrets and insight. Dan Harrington won the gold bracelet and the World Champion title at the $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Holdem Championship at the 1995 World Series of Poker.
