	Fundamental Theorem of Poker at Poker Exploit
		The Fundamental theorem of poker is a principle first articulated by David Sklansky that expresses the essential nature of poker as a game of decision-making in the face of incomplete information.
		This is the mathematical expression of the Fundamental theorem.
		The Fundamental theorem of poker is simply expressed and appears axiomatic, yet its proper application to the countless variety of possible circumstances that a poker player may face requires a great deal of knowledge, skill, and experience.

	Online Poker Game - Poker has a Multitude of Rules - Pokeronlineguru.com
		Poker, like all card games, is game of incomplete information, which distinguishes it from board games like chess, backgammon, and checkers, where you can always see what your opponent is doing.
		The art of poker is filling the gaps in the incomplete information provided by your opponent's betting and the exposed cards in open-handed games, and at the same time preventing your opponents from discovering any more than what you want them to know about your hand.
		If, for instance, in a draw poker games your opponent saw that you had a pat flush before the draw, his correct play would be to throw away a pair of aces when you bet.

		At the poker table, a player is dealing with incomplete information about the cards opponents are holding, and striving to make rational decisions based on this incomplete information.
		In light of the foregoing, it becomes obvious that more perceptive and aware you are about poker situations, the more potential there is that you will execute poker plays that conform to the Fundamental Theorem of Poker.
		The Fundamental Problem of Poker, therefore, is to develop specific poker awareness, specific perceptive powers of poker observation, and other forms of awareness, such that you can get closer and closer to “seeing” all your opponents cards.

		It is very important to understand that when we talk about making a mistake according to the Fundamental Theorem of Poker, we're not necessarily talking about playing badly.
		In advanced poker you are constantly trying to make your opponent or opponents play in a way that would be incorrect if they knew what you had.

		Remember, in poker you don’t want to become too predictable, especially at the higher (pot-/no-limit) stakes, and varying your game is therefore a necessity.
		This having been said, let’s take a look at two recommendations that Cloutier makes, in which choosing a slightly different course of action might (in my opinion) be more profitable in the long run, or in which alternatives to the recommendations given should at least be considered.

	The Theory of Poker
		Certainly this is a result of its being written in the 1970s, but the fact that games like stud, razz, and draw are used for the basis of its examples and illustrations is, in fact, not a detriment.
		It is not a substitute for the more technical works, but it definitely is a vehicle for enhancing their meaning.
		The Fundamental Theory of Poker is integral to one's every action, and it postulates that, when a player plays in the same manner he would if he could see his opponent's cards, he is approaching the game correctly.

		TOP is the story of poker from above, below, and within the cards you draw, are dealt, or view arrayed upon the table.
		Dan Harrington cited it several times within his two 2005 poker masterpieces, and Howard Lederer mentioned TOP in an interview I saw after being asked what books furthered his development.

		Sklansky first presentd the outline of the concepts of successful poker in his first book _Hold'em Poker_.
		Realizing that these concepts were not espoused in complete form elsewhere in poker literature he combined with Roger Dionne, a professional writer and a serious poker player, to explain the theory of winning poker in _Winning Poker_.
		I found _Winning Poker_ to be much more readable than his later _The Theory of Poker_ and to more helpful.
