Chris "Jesus" Ferguson was the 2000 WSOP Champion. Besides being a great player and studier of the game, Jesus has a depth background in Game Theory. He is an expert in it and recently there have been many attractions to Game Theory because it can be applicable in the poker room.
Does anyone know of any good books about how Game Theory can be applied to Poker?
I've heard of "Poker Strategy: Winning with Game Theory." But this book was published in 1981 and I'm not sure if it is outdated or if it has any concentration on Hold 'Em.
Lemme know guys, thanks

I saw this question posted in another forum and pretty much said that although game theory is an interesting study (if you're into that sort of thing), I believe you will ultimately conclude that it has very little. if any, value to poker. Considering the time you will spend studying this complicated and not very pertinent topic (game theory), you would be much better off starting your own journal of your poker plays and results, or studying a top-notch poker book.
Not trying to be negative about the issue, but if you are looking into game theory to improve your poker, I am absolutely convinced you will be disappointed.
