This is the bible of poker. Doyle can really write and really knows poker. This is just the best.

As far as becoming a better player this book is of very little value. Most of the book is just a bunch of stories about what happened to him, and how cool he is. He wrote a lot about his friends, which is pretty annoying. Book is huge and covers a lot of games that i don't think people play anymore. Stats were considered very useful when the book was written but now you can find all that stuff online for free.
I found book hard to read because it had very little information about improving your game.
I also believe the game evolved since then, so advice is not relevant. For example the chapter on general strategy is so basic that you feel cheated after you read it.
Must have for any Poker Player June 8, 2009

I thought I knew how to play poker before I read this book. All I really knew were the rules. I learned very quickly that "How" to play is completly different. Doyle breaks down the game in a way that was unfathomable to me before reading his book. There is such an incredible gold mine of information here that I was forced to use only two or three of his tips until those became second nature. I then added a few more tips and so on. I first read this book over three years ago and I still turn to it constantly and I learn something new every time. I've since read many other poker books and the only one that comes close to being this complete is some of Phil Hellmuth's stuff. Read this book. You won't regret it.

Not that impressed with the book. I felt others are better. Nice thing about this book however, is it covers more games than just holdem. It is more about theory than nitty gritty details (like what starting hands to begin with) Covers alot of reading your opponent, but Caro's book is better. I found it OK, not stellar, but OK. I wouldn't recommend this as your only poker book - but as a secondary book it is acceptable.
