Default Re: What are your opinions of these books?

[ QUOTE ]
I have the following books:
Harrington on Hold ‘em Volume 1 – Dan Harrington
The Theory of Poker – David Sklansky

[/ QUOTE ]

Good

[ QUOTE ]
Play Poker Like the Pros – Phil Hellmuth, Jr.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not too shabby, if you ignore the hold'em chapthers that is (especially the limit chapther, the NL is not quite as awful)


[ QUOTE ]
Super System – Doyle Brunson

[/ QUOTE ]

Outdated as most of these games aren't played anymore, the Stud and NL chapthers are classics tho. (But be careful with the NL chapter, you can get hurt, as players are not all weaktight these days)


[ QUOTE ]
Championship Hold ‘em Tournament Hands – McEvoy/Cloutier

[/ QUOTE ]

BAD (haven't read it, but it is McEvoy/TJ )

I have Super System but not read it; as people keep telling me it's rather dated, so take its advice with more or less a pinch of salt as players have evolved since the book was published

Otherwise, Harrings and Theory of Poker are good choices [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
