(1/2) > >>

2make1whole:
hi has anybody read ACE ON THE RIVER  ad1WHATS IT LIKE PLEASE

IM GETTING SOME HARRINGTON FOR XMAS TO READ

kinboshi:
It"s a decent enough book.  Not a poker "manual" though - but an interesting read.

hi_am_chris:
currently reading it, some good advice in it but its more about lifestyle habits and bankroll management then what hands to play, am enjoying it tho. What other books have people read and reccomend? ive read harringtons 1 and 2 and thought both were good along with Scott Fischmans Online Ace which i really liked. Also Brunsons Online poker which was awful, please dont buy that.  What are slanskys books like, they are next on my list once i get the points together on stars :)

Philippos13:
i ve got slanskys tournament advice for advanced players but i think there is nothing new , original or advanced on what it has to say....everybody speaks about slanskys theory of poker but i havent read that...i suppose that should be better but def do not get tournament  advice one...
i recently read a book called the pshychology of poker but some guy called schoo...something cant remeber the name by hard .... but i thought the book was really good as it does not give you the usual advice that everybody knows allready but a different perspective of the game and how to look at the game...
really intresting read
as far as tournament advice is concerned u cannot go wrong with harrington...

has anyone read any hellmuth books? are they any good or just out there to make money?

BioBlinx:
Hellmuth"s books are AWFUL in my opinion. Really bad.

Sklansky"s books are so detailed that they"re deffinately a recommended read. The theory of poker is a really deep read. It can be a bit tough. It doesnt use hand examples that we"re used to with Harrington. It also draws examples from all the games, stud, razz, etc, so sometimes its a little tough to apply to hold em. But if you have the time to study it and really read through it then it will deffinately help your game.
