Default Re: Most over-rated poker book of all time?


Overrated:
Super System 2: Except for the Triple Draw Chapter and perhaps Limit HE, every other chapter could have been so much better. And where are 7-Card Stud and an update of the great statistic appendix from SSI?

Ace on the River: I have no problem with the content. It is what it is. But this book is badly overproduced. It looks like someone trying to design a coffee table book who had never designed a coffee table book. Way too much white space, and what is with have the title of the book on every other page?

Psychology of Poker: I guess I just expected a little more nuance than the same old four player profiles.

Hold-em Poker for Advanced Players: Just unreadable

Not Overrated (among famous books)
Super System (original)
SSHE
Harrington On Hold-em
Play Poker Like the Pros (Not a bad beginner's book if you ignore some of the specific LHE advice, and who rates this highly anyway?)
