Rating: 2 stars
Summary: pro lady
Review: the cover is excellent that is the two star rating the rest of the book doesn't carry enough information to make you a solid player like he stated it's not recommended

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: So Much Fluff II
Review: This book is not any better than the beginner book, and actually it is worse. Again there are too few examples, and the ones that are present don't seem to convey the point very well. Andy Nelson may be a good hold'em player, but I don't think he can teach well through a book. Again, I would recommend the book by Ken Warren which is much more thorough and cheaper (1 book instead of Andy's three).

Summary: Nelson - Hold'em Intermediate
Review: This is another excellent book by Andy Nelson. His style is accessible to any poker player. In this book in chapter one he emphasizes the importance of position in hold'em. That particular chapter is a must read when one needs to review the basics of the game. Whenever I slip off my game (which is often given that I've only been playing seriously for a year) I go back and review this along with some other chapters from Nelson's books on hold'em. This book is crucial for anyone who wants to move beyond the beginner's level of the game.

Summary: If you consider yourself an intermediate player, go buy theb
Review: With a few months of internet experience, and a bankroll steadily growing, I considered myself an intermediate player. But I wanted to get a more steadfast grip on concepts such as position and implied odds. I did not find much of value in this book, and especially the casual style of the author annoyed me immensely. If you want poker jokes and elementary card playing skills you might enjoy this book. If you're serious about poker go find something more structured. This book teach you only the basics and is not even good at that.
