Much has changed in the area of school law since the first edition of The Educator's Guide was published in 1986. In this new seventh edition, the authors have streamlined the discussion by pruning older material and weaving in new developments. The result is an authoritative source on all major dimensions of Texas school law that is both well integrated and easy to read. Intended for Texas school personnel, school board members, interested attorneys, and taxpayers, the seventh edition explains what the law is and what the implications are for effective school operations. It is designed to help professional educators avoid expensive and time-consuming lawsuits by taking effective preventive action. It is an especially valuable resource for school law courses and staff development sessions. The seventh edition begins with a review of the legal structure of the Texas school system. Successive chapters address attendance and the instructional program, the education of children with special needs, employment and personnel, expression and associational rights, the role of religion in public schools, student discipline, open meetings and records, privacy, search and seizure, and legal liability under both federal and Texas law. In addition to state law, the book addresses the growing role of the federal government in school operation through such major federal legislation as the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, and the No Child Left Behind Act. |

The poker boom has created a generation of new players who aspire to become professional poker players. In response, dozens of books have been written that aim to show players how to play like the pros do, allowing them to compete against tough players at high stakes, or win in the increasingly difficult realm of online poker.
But not every player wants to become a high-stakes professional. For many players, the end goal is a much more modest one – they want to be winners in low-stakes games, and nothing more. They want to go to the casino, play in a $1/$2 game, and know that in the long run, they’ll come out on top. In fact, it’s probably true that there are many more players who fit into this category than there are aspiring poker pros. After all, plenty of players would be content to enjoy the casual, social nature of these low-stakes games – as long as they can turn a profit at the same time.
Catching Fish was written with these players in mind. Playing in a $1/$2 live game is a completely different experience than battling against strong players, and the advice found in many books is geared more towards the former than the latter. Unfortunately, using advice meant for tough games at a typical low-limit table can be counterproductive, or even dangerous.
In Catching Fish, you'll learn exactly how to beat the weak players who populate live low stakes no-limit hold'em tables. This isn't a book designed to teach you how to play perfect poker; instead, it's all about shoring up your fundamental poker play and learning how to exploit the numerous mistakes your opponents will regularly make. Catching Fish is light on math and heavy on practical advice that can quickly turn you into a big winner at your favorite $1/$2 table.
Some of the topics covered in Catching Fish include:
- Starting Hands
- Why Position Matters
- Continuation Bets
- Pot Odds and Implied Odds
- Playing Draws
- Value Betting
- Pot Control
- River Play
- Adjusting to Your Opponents
- How Stack Size Influences Play |
