Someone mentioned this in Theory the other day.

Anyone read it? Is it any good?

Im looking for something thats going to help me spot regulation bluffs a little easier

Many thanks

Yeah it's pretty good. A nice way to summarize all the basic bluffs in one place rather than all the ad hoc bluffs mentioned in passing across many books.

If you can get is through Stars, it's a steal (600? 800 FPP?) Some of the examples given are absurd (getting someone to muck a set of Aces after making a very, very suspicious over bet or having a person fold a straight in a limit stud game with so many people in the pot, there aren't enough cards for everyone), but it helps you to learn how to pick off many of the bluffs listed. I wish the book focused on how to set up a "narrative" for the hand in order to help the reader choose which bluffs are appropriate after what actions.

It's 800 FPP for a 16$ book. A good ABC's for bluffing, with the additional entertainment hands.

This would be very useful.
Anyone know of any books pertaining to this?
