Default Wikipedia for information

Don't know if this has been discussed before but if you are interested in poker probabilities, strategy, and pot odds, Wikipedia has a lot of information.

-log on to wikipedia.org
- search on the following
Poker probability (Texas hold'em) and/or Poker probability (Omaha)
Poker strategy
Pot odds

There are also references to popular books and authors.

I have checked Wiki for other things poker related, but never odds and probabilities. I am going to have to check this out. Thanks for the heads up.

That section is very cool. I didn't realize how documented and factual the history of the game was. It is kinda cool to think about where the game has come from and where it has evolved to. I remember watching the WSOP 2003... thats when I was re introduced to the game. My grandma taught me 5 card draw when i was really young and thats how it all started for me

Wikipedia is the shizzle. Lots of info, easy to navigate, and free.
I like to look at the history stuff, they have a list of who beat who and with what hands for most of the WSOP main event heads up finish.

I was amazed at how indepth the section 'Poker probability (Texas hold'em)' is
