There are also a number of new Bonus Chapters and Bonus Thoughts with new material specifically targeted toward those big bet games. As a result, David felt it was time to write a new book that would methodically address each of the chapters in the original Theory of Poker, summarize them, and then go into lengthy detail as to how the ideas and concepts in those chapters need to be altered, when necessary, to best deal with no-limit and pot-limit games. Now, the most popular form of poker is no-limit hold em. But that book, while applicable to many aspects of no limit and pot limit poker was originally written mainly with limit games in mind.
The Theory of Poker by David Sklansky has long been recognized as the foundational book for all of poker no matter what the game, and at the time of this writing is still the best selling book in poker.
