In Poker Satellite Strategy professional poker player Dara O’Kearney gives you a framework for how to approach every stage of a satellite tournament, from the early levels right up to the bubble. This book takes the stress and uncertainty out of satellites.You will learn:- Adjustments you need to make from regular poker tournament strategy- What hands to shove, call and fold on the bubble- When to tighten up and when to keep accumulating chips- Easy poker math to do at the tables- The correct poker GTO ranges (and how to adjust to to different player types and situations)- When it’s correct to fold Pocket Aces preflopAs of November 2023 this book has been updated with an additional chapter on Milestone/Target Stack Satellites. The new live poker format where you win your seat once you reach a certain stack amount.Dara O’Kearney is a professional poker player from Ireland with a long standing reputation as the best satellite specialist in the game.

Every chapter starts from a poker GTO framework but then explains how you should deviate when the players or table dynamics change.It covers every aspect of satellite play, from the important bubble stage, but even explaining the poker game theory behind late registering, post flop play, poker mindset issues unique to satellites and how to adjust in live poker tournaments. It has everything a texas hold’em player needs to qualify for big poker tournaments like the World Poker Tour, EPT or World Series of Poker.ABOUT THE AUTHOR: (1) Dara O’Kearney is a professional poker player from Ireland with a long standing reputation as the best satellite specialist in the game.

English | EPUB | 2022 | 414 Pages | ISBN : 3031155483 | 153.7 MB
This book presents both updated and new measurements on water resources from selective pilot areas form the Middle East. Demand for water has become very crucial notably in arid and semiarid regions like in the Middle East. The changing climate and the increased population are the most striking challenges on water resources in this region where the largest part of its territory is dry lands and deserts with minimal precipitation and high evaporation rates, and thus, the average per capita of water does not exceed 25 m3/year. This resulted in developing many studies and researches in different Middle East countries to clearly identify and assess the hydrological characteristics of the available water resources and to explore new resources in order to secure balanced water supply/demand.
