 I'm In Love !!! March 29, 2008
19 out of 33 found this review helpful
I just finished reading Volume 1 of Harrington on Cash Games and this books is AWESOME !!! I scored it off of eBay for a good price and I'm glad I did because they're still out of stock here =)
Harrington covers a lot of material in Volume 1 and with over 400 pages it makes it even better. I LOVE what they did in this Volume by first explaining how and why certain situations are to be played and than went on to show you actual examples. The first round of examples, just covering and analyzing Pre-Flop play, is 44 Pages !!! And that's exactly what I want from a poker book =)
Each section is a lot more than I expected, and even sections like Big Blind and Small Blind play are right to the point in the information they have. I really like how clearly Harrington shows that bets in No-Limit Hold'em can increase exponentially as the hand progresses. For player's transitioning from Limit Poker to No-Limit, this section will be a really fun read. He also covers Hand Reading and in a few instances he takes actual hands from TV shows like High Stakes Poker and analyzes them too. The opening of the book is something like 12 pages of pure analysis just from 1 hand of High Stakes Poker!!! That's another big plus for me. I want to see into the minds of the professionals that I watch on TV every week and the opening alone was a joy to read.
I would have bought these from Amazon for the discount they're offering, but I'm glad that I paid a little extra because if Volume 2 is as great as Volume 1 than I'm in love!
 Harrington Tournament vs Cash March 25, 2008
16 out of 45 found this review helpful
I read both volumes on Harrington on Cash Games "How to Win at No-Limit Hold'em Money Games", I also had previously purchased both volumes of Dan Harrington's much heralded tournament series ...
First Harrington again has done a comprehensive job of creating an epic, however I personally found him less of a revelation in the cash game series than in the tournament books. It could be me and my base of knowledge.
Volume I covers Pre-flop play and play on the Flop.
Volume II covers the Turn and the River as well as some sections on dealing with Loose Agressive style players, Tells, Beating Weak Games and Bankroll Management.
Bottom line, I wish he never wrote it... If a sucker has the brains and discipline to read it, learn it and practice it, he will be a better player. Harrington once again has wised up some suckers.
Lucky for us, 90% of all people who claim they play poker think they already play better than 90% of all poker players. Thank the good lord that these people are too lazy and are not sufficiently motivated to read and learn.
