Illustrated Seamanship -...

Ivar Dedekam

For any sailor, in a yacht or motorboat, the passage from one place to another is relatively easy, particularly with modern navigation equipment. What can be more of a challenge (and a potential source of anxiety for skipper and crew) is the start and end of a passage – how to leave and arrive safely, particularly if it's a cramped marina or crowded anchorage. In Illustrated Seamanship, Ivar Dedekam takes you through the techniques required to achieve a safe departure and arrival. Starting with the fundamentals of ropework he then moves on to manoeuvring, berthing, making fast and then leaving. All types of berthing are covered from coming alongside, stern to, bow to, between finger pontoons and using piles and buoys. There is advice about dealing with different wind and current directions as well as using springs. Ivar then turns to anchoring and offers guidance on setting and weighing anchor in many different circumstances: under sail and under power, using one or two anchors and coping with changes in wind and tide while anchored. You probably won't experience all the scenarios that Ivar so carefully describes, but you will certainly come across quite a few. Knowing what to do when a new situation comes up could be invaluable, increasing your confidence and leading to greater enjoyment and use of your boat. With over 500 diagrams, this slim volume is a perfect reminder of frequently used techniques and could be your get-out-of-jail card when a new circumstance arises. This new edition has an improved layout and the eBook's functionality has been improved significantly.

101+ Poker Tips - What The Cards...

Rick Gleason

**101+ Poker Tips: What the Cards Taught Me After Midnight** isn't about flashy bluffs or Hollywood heroics. It's about the habits that separate winning players from losing ones: discipline, awareness, sound decision-making, and avoiding costly mistakes.

Drawn from decades of experience and thousands of hours at the poker table, this audiobook is a practical guide created specifically for low-stakes No-Limit Texas Hold'em players.

Whether you're new to poker or a regular in casino cash games, you'll find practical advice you can use immediately. Every tip is concise, easy to understand, and based on real-world experience—not theory for theory's sake.

One of the audiobook's greatest advantages is convenience. Listen while driving to your favorite poker room, commuting, exercising, or relaxing at home. Organized by subject, the chapters make it easy to jump directly to the topics you want or review a specific concept before your next session. Whether you listen from beginning to end or choose individual chapters as a quick refresher, you'll always find practical advice you can put to work the very next time you sit down at the table.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

* Avoid costly mistakes that quietly drain your bankroll.
* Think long-term and survive variance with confidence.
* Control pot size and manage marginal hands.
* Recognize betting patterns and read your opponents.
* Get maximum value from your strongest hands.
* Handle tilt and make better emotional decisions.
* Bluff with discipline and apply pressure effectively.

If just one of these tips saves you a buy-in, helps you avoid a costly mistake, or gives you the confidence to make the right decision at the right time, this audiobook will have more than paid for itself.

"I hope these tips save you a few buy-ins, sharpen your instincts, and help you enjoy this amazing game we all love with greater confidence and fewer regrets." — *Rick Gleason*
