Default Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'em Volume 1 Review Thread

[ QUOTE ]
I've been playing poker for 3 weeks but only in play money. Now, I'd like to play in real money. I have not read a poker book yet and I just know the rules of Holdem. I know nothing about odds, probabilities, strategies, etc... so do you think that "Professional No-Limit Hold 'em Volume 1" is a good first book ?

Does it introduce the concepts mentioned above ? Do you think that is a good book for someone who wants to play poker more seriously ?

Read the Theory of poker first and start with the microstakes.
then read Harrington on holdem VOL1 and VOL2 you should now see a profit in your results.
Read the pokermindset to learn how to deal with bankrollmanagement and bad beats etc.

When you master these books and make a solid profit move up a level or two depending on your bankroll and start reading NLH Theory and practice a couple of times.

After reading and fully understanding these books you can start with PNLH.
