You’ve seen the poker pros on TV announce an opponent’s hand as if<br />

by magic. Now it’s your turn! Owen reveals the secrets to becoming an<br />

expert hand-reader. READ HANDS, GET PAID…<br />

Excerpt from Hole Card Confessions:<br />

“If poker is a battle for information, what information am I looking for?<br />

How do I find it? What do I do with this knowledge once I’ve found it?<br />

I’ll answer these questions and more from the experience I have gained<br />

over 3 million hands of analyzing opponents of every variety. <strong>That</strong><br />

experience gained over that number of hands allows me to make<br />

incredibly accurate assumptions about the strategies of different<br />

opponent types. This knowledge is one of the most valuable things I<br />

can offer other players; it puts them on the fast track to becoming handreading<br />

experts.<br />

With this information and some experience, you’ll often find your<br />

opponent’s hole cards are speaking volumes. It’s just a matter of tuning<br />

your ears to their frequency. Once you’re tuned in, you will have<br />

obtained a key ingredient needed to become a force at the poker<br />

tables.”
