Rating: 2 stars
Summary: very subjective...not enough analysis
Review: i found this book disappointing...it is not what i expected...very little real information...large print, few pages, no statistics on hand value...what is there is good advice...just not enough to improve a good player's game...very pricey for what you get...invest in one of the other authors if you take your poker seriously...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Spend your money on a better book -- or lose it at the table
Review: I've played a LOT of hold'em and omaha poker, and read most of the literature on these games, and this books simply does not stack up. It's advice is simplistic, and well-known to anyone who has played the game at all seriously. Not that there is anything wrong to a lot of the advice, it simply will not give you any edge. Far better are books by Tom McEvoy, Bob Ciaffione, and Ray Zee, which take a little more effort to master, but give some real insight. This wouldn't be a good book for anyone other than a beginner.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: For Beginners Only
Review: This book (and book one) is for beginners only. If you already know how to read the board (the five community cards on the table), you will not get much use out of these two books. There is some useful information on starting hands. The rest of the books emphasizes playing for the nutz or folding. No other strategy or game play is taught. At the low price, you almost get what you pay for.
