Alan Schoonmaker, author of The Psychology of Poker, recently released a new book entitled: Your Best Poker Friend: Increase Your Mental Edge.

In his newest book, Schoonmaker discusses the mental factors behind decision making in poker. Increasing self-knowledge, and logic versus intuition are the main topics of discussion in the book, which is broken down into four sections:

Part One, "Getting and Using Information"
Part Two, "Increasing Your Edge"
Part Three, "Should You Play No-Limit Hold'em"
Part Four, "Developing Yourself."

In part four readers will find a useful, "Poker Improvement Plan," designed to help serious players set goals and track their progress.
