Fantastic book for beginners in no limit holdem November 13, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
As you can see by the average rating, this book's a hit. For the rank beginning, or up to I'd say intermediate, this book is a GREAT way to learn how to play value Texas Holdem. Where Harrington does not do a great job (by design) is teaching you so called "moves," (bets/raises made not because of the strength of your hand, but because of situations). He does discuss these, but in a somewhat peremptory fashion. But to learn the critical basics of what constitutes a good hand in what situation, as well as the basics of tournament play, this book (as well as volume II) is fantastic.

Final Exam: No Limit Texas Hold'em November 8, 2007
This isn't a poker book, it's a final exam. The book is 50 hands/problems with multiple choice answers, followed by analysis of the choices, detailed explanations for the worst, better, best choices and grading. Sometimes tough grading. Few generalities. Instead, in-depth hand/position/stack/odds analysis as they apply to playing specific hands. Having studied Volumes 1 & 2, I was repeatedly surprised that Harrington would do something that appeared to contradict what he had previously preached. But, a shade of difference, perhaps position, pot-odds, number of callers, the types of callers or raisers (loose or tight) made choice A superior to choice B. His analysis is sometimes overwhelming. It can take five or more minutes to read his explanation and you obviously don't have that kind of time at a poker table. But, if learning to read the situation "correctly," understanding the options, and making the right decision are your goals, this book is unmatched. Harrington's writing is often colorful and always conversational. It's as if you have a private tutor. While I didn't always agree with Harrington's choices, I benefited from his explanations -- I know how other people might react to a given situation. Far and away the best book on poker I've ever read.

ITS A MUST OWN POKER BOOK October 19, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you play tournament poker. This is the best.
If I was going to be very critical, I could say its a "Tight way to play tourneys"...but its hard to argue with Harringtons record..or his ideas on tournament play. ITS A MUST OWN POKER BOOK
