Re: johnny chan\'s limit hold em book
I heard it was a pretty good book, so I thumbed through it at Barnes & Noble yesterday.
It looked great. It's mostly a series of examples with explanations that follow. But what I really liked was the fact that it addressed mostly heads-up (postflop) situations against tough opponents. I'll probably be getting this book in the next couple of weeks. |

But I think it's really beginnerish. |

Re: johnny chan\'s limit hold em book
You raise an early limper and only the big blind and the limper call your raise. The flop comes down and both players check to you, you bet. The big blind folds but the limper calls. The turn is dealt and the limper checks to you again, you remain aggressive and bet again. The limper folds and you win the pot.
Brilliant. Thanks Johnny Chan, I never would have worked that out without your book. |

I'm reading Stox's book right now and it definitely falls into the "best poker book" category. When I'm done I'll probably read it again. Have you heard anything about Barry T's new advanced book? |
