4 out of 5 stars Great introduction to No Limit Hold'em Tournaments   April 27, 2009
Snowblind
This is a well written and clear description of the basics of no limit hold'em tournament play. If you are a beginner like me you'll have tons of great information on how to play the first levels of a tournament. Examples are well chosen to give you an insight to how to react to different scenarios. The book gives you good advice on when to bet and how much to bet.

The information is well explained and easy to understand. I'm sure that anyone wishing to develop his tournament skills will benefit from reading this book. Maybe this is not the perfect first poker book to read, but if you have some experience on tournaments and Texas hold'em and want to take your game to next level this is perfect choice. If you're an experienced tournament player you probably know this stuff already.

This book covers the early stages of tournaments and I think the vol. 2 of this series is about the later phases of the game. I'm currently waiting for the next part to arrive for I wish to learn how to proceed to the final rounds and bigger prizes.



5 out of 5 stars Very good food for thought   March 30, 2009
J. Beakley (New England, USA)
This is an excellent book. The writing is clear and uncluttered, and the material well-organized and thoughtfully presented.

The best part of the book is the many, many, many examples that describe certain situations and then ask you what is the "right" action given the circumstances. Even if you don't agree with Harrington's approach in every case, he frames the problems and issues well and forces you to question your intuition in various situations. It's a very fun book for anyone who both loves poker and who is willing to tolerate a little math.



3 out of 5 stars Good beginner book   February 14, 2009

I purchased this book due to all the good reviews. This book is written well with some info that is good for people do not know concepts like pot valves and counting how many outs your hand has. I feel that most people who play at a higher level may find this book not to be much help if they play at an advanced level. I like Slansky's books a little more and are a little more involved. Not a bad book , but not what I was looking for.
