December 8, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —
Over the course of his career, Konstantinos Palamourdas has made headlines in the gaming world for his significant holdem contributions, as well as his innovative approach of applying complex underlying mathematics in an understandable way. From his extremely popular classes and holdem articles, to the important contributions he has made to major online networks regarding player rake reduction, Dr. Palamourdas’ work has been met with universal affirmation around the globe. His signature style of finding practical but also psychological and philosophical connections between life and the game, all while using a very simple language, resonates highly with both students and the public alike.
Dr. Palamourdas’ vital contributions have not gone unnoticed by D&B publishing, which recently offered the gaming expert a contract to author his revolutionary holdem techniques and strategies in a full-sized book publication. Many readers will note that D&B is one of the largest publishers in the field, and the home of some of the biggest names in the holdem game. Indeed, the game's greatest such as Phil Hellmuth, Mike Sexton, Jonathan Little and Chris Moorman have all found home there, authoring books and contributions through the company. With his upcoming book, Dr. Palamourdas now joins that impressive roster of contributors.
Faithful to his unconventional, yet very successful methods that have made him such an influential figure, Dr. Palamourdas states that he is planning to stay away from the binary and highly polarized cookie-cutter approach often found in gaming literature. Traditionally, holdem contributors’ side with either the subjective camp, which tries to use "war stories" with the hope that those stories will influence readers to follow-suit; or, the objective camp, which often offers a tedious and confusing approach to holdem. Refreshingly, Dr. Palamourdas offers a unique perspective, aiming to use simplicity and relatability with comprehensible objectivity to create a powerful yet malleable narrative. His approach takes into account universal truths of what it means to be human while respecting individuality and the inherent complexities of the game.
Professor Palamourdas will soon finish the first draft of his book, which is now in its first editing stage. He also revealed that the story will follow two main antagonists that have contradictory and yet equally valid objectives. Dr. Palamourdas’ publication with D&B is scheduled for release by 2020 and expected to be an important addition to his line of significant contributions.
