Skat: “The Book”
Skatlink has taught 100’s of people to play the Ultimate card game
called "Skat”. Many of those people have said “I love the game, but I
want to get better and learn more advanced game strategies".
Although there are 100’s of books on Skat, almost all of them are
written in German. In 1972, Wergin published an English book on Skat
which is very good on the fundamentals and will definitely teach you
some strategies. I (Ron Link) have read many of these books and
determined that they all tend to teach a defensive strategy. They use
logic and extreme card distributions to explain certain hands. Which
on a teaching level is very good but tends to teach people to take
less risk and become a very strong defensive player. I have won over
60 Skat tournaments, attended 12 World championships, and have always
finished in the prizes. This has been accomplished through
offense. Therefore, I wanted to write a Book on Skat that was
different - one that teaches you how to Win and the true philosophy on
Skat through the eyes of a winner. Information according to first-hand
experiences and actual practices from Masters around the world. This
book will teach you how to look at the game as a winner, not just an
excellent player, by knowing card distribution odds, reading your
opponents, being confident, and using advanced strategies in offense
and not just in defense. With this book you will not only win more
than you ever have, but you will also discover the logical and
mathematical part of the game as well as how reading player behaviors
can benefit your playing strategy.
ENJOY!
