 horribly dated strategy May 20, 2010

this book does a lot of discussion about poker and the many unprovable truths it presents, but every strategy presented also presents with itself an optimal more powerful counter strategy.
i've read many better organized strategy books, and find this to be more like the ramblings of an aging man.
you could learn more about poker by simply playing.
 Okay book but has a mix of everything in one. October 5, 2009
Edward H. Nguyen (San Diego, CA)
This is an okay book but does not have a lot of emphasis on one game.
not as I expected. September 16, 2009
Ronald Amaro
Book arrived in a timely manner but was underlined throughout the book and not in condition as stated.
A good deal of rehash, but worth picking up for the new parts. June 30, 2009
Robert P. Beveridge (Cleveland, OH)
Doyle Brunson (ed.), Super/System 2 (Cardoza, 2005)
The cover of Super/System 2 touts it as the most anticipated book in poker history. Given that the original is the most influential book in poker history, I can understand that, but you have to figure that such a thing is kind of setting the reader up for a letdown. After all, the reason the original was so influential is that when it came out, very few people understood the tenets contained within. Now it's over a quarter-century later, and every poker player beyond the most causal free-money Internet player understands the strategies therein; these days they're poker 101. Who doesn't know that suited connectors are worth calling a raise with if you've put your opponent on a high pair?
The good thing about the book, and it does comprise the bulk, is that some games have changed in popularity since the first book, and so there are chapters covering games that didn't appear in the original Super/System. These chapters are well worth the price of admission unless you specialize in a single game; I definitely advise buying the book along with its predecessor to get an overview of some games that are just now increasing in popularity. The bad part of the book (and I use "bad" as a relative term here; it's still well-written, solid work) is that the rest of it treads much the same ground as the first one; as before, a large bulk of the book is devoted to No-Limit Hold'em, and the strategies haven't changed a great deal. A lot of that part will look very familiar.
Still, it's worth picking up if you're even a casual fan of poker. Knowledge is power, especially at the poker table. ****

I'd do business with this Co. again. All was as stated. I would use UPS instead of PP-slow-slow
