Default Comprehensive No Limit Holdem and Tournament by Rock Banker

I've searched the forums and haven't found any reference to this book. Has anyone read this book or even heard of the author?

Thanks

Is this book funny enough that it would be worth purchasing for laughs?

If memory serves me right Rock Banker is quoted quite often in the "Worst Poker Book You've Ever Seen/Read?"-thread.

Hi Jan:

The manuscript for this book was sent to us and we declined to publish it. Assuming the book is similar to what I saw, I wouldn't recommend it.

Best wishes,
Mason

I created that thread specifically because of the Rock Banker book, and me wondering if there possibly could be any worse book out there out there. There isn't.

I'd hesitate to recommend it just for laughs, from what I've seen. You wouldn't want any of Rock's "information" to seep into your subconscious. It WOULD make a great gift, however, for your fellow home game payers. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
