This book covers different poker games and each chapter is written buy a different poker pro. I like getting one book and not only getting just one persons view on how things should be done. Although I don't play anything but hold'em, I still enjoyed reading about the strategies to other poker games. Definitely one to get for the poker library.
I don't want anyone wasting their time reading this poker guide, especially if you play on full tilt. As most people know poker players are as honest as they come and I have to say this book is not worth your money...
This book contain good insights into Texas Holdem. I was impressed by the number of poker pros that contributed to the book. I particularly liked Chris Ferguson's ideas.
One of three books that changed my game. If you play sit and goes or multis this will help you game and is one of the few I felt worth its weight in gold. I am curently reading it for the third time. I do not give reviews but this one I felt I should. This will be one of your favorites. Good luck and I hope I see you at the tables.
If you're a beginner with some experience under your belt, but only limited knowledge of poker tactics/strategy, you're likely to improve your game drastically after having read this book. It covers all the basics of NL Hold-em, including betting, bet-sizes, pre-flop/post-flop strategy, as well as big-stack and small-stack play. It also covers Omaha and a few other poker variants. In other words, it's the perfect book to get if you're just starting out.
On the other hand, if you have some experience and are familiar with the basics such as the 3x-raise, stealing, re-stealing, position, leverage, big-stack play, pot-odds, etc. this book offers only limited info. Moreover, if you're looking for material on NL Hold-em exclusively, this may not be the book for you, as only 10 of the 19 chapters are about the game (the remainder being dedicated to Omaha, Razz, Stud).
In other words, for the more advanced players, it's a great book to get your basics straight, but don't expect much new. Only two chapters offer more advanced strategy. These discuss pre- and post-flop strategy from a math-pont of view, grouping raising/calling-hands based on hand-quality/position/other players' actions/etc., giving you nice data-sheets to study and consider.
Another thing worth noting is the cover, which sports the Full Tilt-logo. It may leave you with the impression that the book is written with an emphasis on online MTTs. This is not the case. An entire chapter is dedicated to online poker, but the info there is pretty much useless, unless you've just started out. Tips in the chapter include: raise in SB if BB is sitting out, take advantage of the real-time pay-out info, etc.
