I read the book.

It was worth the price of the the book just for a full understanding of the "weak is strong" concept.

Sure, people all over have read the same book and might try to throw off fake tells, but you'll be surprised how many people at live games haven't read the book and act just like one of the examples in the text.

I haven't seen the video, and I don't plan to buy it.

I've read it, though I liked the "Phil Hellmuth Presents Read 'Em and Reap: A Career FBI Agent's Guide to Decoding Poker Tells"

I thought FBI fellow's details about high and low confidence tells was much more revealing.

more than anything i think that the book is worthwhile just to get you to pay attention to your opponents. though many people may know the tells already and may use them against you, at least it shows you that you can pick up things from your opponents and find physical patterns.

Really. You'd be surprised how many haven't read Caro's book in a live casino game. In fact, most of them probably haven't.

Think they're both worth a read, but Caro's is probably a bit dated.
