First we will introduce the basics of poker and fundamental strategies and explore the statistical foundations that govern the game. Then we will expand upon this initial framework and study concepts such as range analysis, exploitative playstyles, and frequencies as they relate to optimal strategy. Finally we will conclude the course with a discussion and application of tournament play.  \nCourse Details  \nPrerequisites: None  \nCredits: 1  \nSeats: 20  \nLecture Time: TBD  \nLocation: TBD  \nSemester: Fall 2019  \nTextbook: Notes will be provided by the facilitator  \nCourse Facilitator: John Horine  \nFaculty Advisor: Dr. Wiseley Wong  \nContact Information  \nCourse Facilitator: John Horine – [jhorine@umd.edu](jhorine@umd.edu)  \nFaculty Advisor: Dr. Wiseley Wong – [wwong123@math.umd.edu](wwong123@math.umd.edu)  \nGoals of the Course  \n● Create an environment for study of poker theory without the need for real-money wagering.  \n● Develop the basic foundation for decision-making in poker.  \n● Allow students to assess their own level of play and have a framework for improvement.  \n● Provide an understanding of the current poker environment and how students might leverage talent for poker in the future.  \n\n| Schedule |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Lectur\u003Cbr>e | General Topic | Specific Topics | Activities |\n| 1 | Syllabus and Poker Basics | hand hierarchy, statistical basis, available actions | Introduction lecture |\n| 2 | Basic Strategy and vocabulary | positions, pot odds, implied odds, equity, ranges | Basic strategy lecture, quiz 1, play |\n| 3 | Preflop Analysis | general preflop strategy based on position | Preflop Analysis lecture, quiz 2, play |\n| 4 | Range analysis | range analysis software, combinatorics | Range analysis lecture, quiz 3, play |\n| 5 | Advanced strategy | playing against different playstyles, blockers | Advanced strategy lecture, quiz 4, play |\n| 6 | Adjustments for table dynamic | Common player types, playstyle exploitations | Adjustments lecture, quiz 5, play |\n| 7 | MIDTERM exam | N/A | MIDTERM exam |\n| 8 | Buckets and board texture | betting frequencies, how events change strategy | Buckets and board texture lecture, quiz 6, play |\n| 9 | bankroll management and psychology | Responsible bankroll management, poker \"tilt\" | bankroll management lecture , quiz 7, play |\n| 10 | Tournament play | turbos and Multitable Tournaments (MTTs), ICM implications | Tournament play lecture, quiz 8, play |\n| 11 | Day 1 in class MTT | N/A | Day 1 in class MTT, quiz 9, play |\n| 12 | Day 2 in class MTT | N/A | Day 2 in class MTT |\n| 13 | Day 3 in class MTT | N/A | Day 3 in class MTT |\n| 14 | Review Session | N/A | Review Session |\n| 15 | FINAL Exam | N/A | FINAL Exam |\n\nGrading  \n● Participation-40%  \n● Quizzes-20%  \n● Midterm-20%  \n● Final-20%  \nPolicy on Collaborations and Academic Integrity  \nYou may interact with fellow students when preparing your homework solutions.
