| Customer Reviews: Nice reading, excelent structure March 5, 2009 Ruslan Fazlyev (Ulyanovsk, Russia) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I liked this book and I liked the way it organized. Basically each chapter is written by different poker Pro, but the topics covered are the same.
br /So reader can see how different approaches work in poker.
br /
br /In my opinion, it's only worth reading up to T.J.Cloutier's chapter. Everything else is wasted time and only makes the book heavier.
br /Liked the last chapter, uncovering the fact that the book was written by poker amateur and Boeing 747 pilot.

pretty darn good... January 29, 2009 J. Rubino (Simi Valley,Ca USA) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a nice cross section of various poker pros who have stood the test of time and they offer numerous ideas on strategy and tactics. Most of the advice is geared toward tournament play and many of the authors have published in other places. That said I found the book a good read and the delivery and style of the author made for an easy read. Profiles include Daniel Negreanu, Dan Harrington, Chris Ferguson, Mike Sexton, Marcel Luske and four others. I find it interesting to listen to various pros offer advice on the same game; some very different ideas and yet each has attained a good deal of success over many years using their unique approach to no limit tournaments. There is more than one way to play winning poker and you should find a number of good ideas to improve your game and thinking.
The Next Best Thing to Buying and Reading a Stack of Poker Books December 2, 2008 dr stock 2 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book is quite a collaboration of great poker minds. I'm not through reading it yet but decided to start with the Ferguson chapter since in my opinion he is one of the most dangerous poker players on the planet with his deep mathematical and game theoretical understanding of the game. Chris always has very sound advice.

br /Thousands of poker books have been published and I hope to eventually read them all but this one is particularly useful because it contains some very important insights from not one but several of the top pros. And this is quite a group of names! I'm looking forward to reading every last word of every chapter. I highly recommend this book.

Pocket Aces July 18, 2008 Richard D. Reilly 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
Love this book. If you play, whether it's a friendly or a smoker, this book can help your game with its insights from the players with the biggest stones. Those guys (gender agnostic) are legends and yet seemingly accessible - if only. Dunnett has done it. Even though I recommend it, I'm tempted to keep to myself and use it for the potential ill-gotten gains from less informed competitors.
