The Weekly PokerNews Strategy Quiz: Reading Is Fundamental

Those of a certain age might recall the frequent advertisements we used to see on our televisions for the non-profit organization “Reading Is Fundamental.” The group was first formed in the mid-1960s and is still going strong, although those “RIF” ads are a little less conspicuous these days.

We talk a lot about “reading” in poker. We talk about reading your opponents in order to discover their playing styles and anticipate their next moves. We talk about hand reading and “range reading,” too, as we try to narrow what our opponents may possibly have. And, of course, here in the PokerNews Strategy section we offer another kind of reading, too — the literal kind — and in this new installment of “The Weekly PokerNews Strategy Quiz” we’ll give you a chance to test those reading skills.
