 Very well written. July 9, 2007

It must be difficult to write a book to a market of poker players of greatly varying skills, but I feel Harrington has done it masterfully. It educates without pandering, and amuses enough while making the reader think and rethink moves that he might otherwise perform on auto-pilot. Pot odds (a now abused catch-phrase amateurs spit out at the table tautologically to compensate defensively for their bad play) are gone into in depth from both points of view (the player and his opponent...i.e. pot odds given and pot odds offered), and rationally shows that no-limit doesn't have to be all about mindless chip-shoving. Looking very forward to his other books. Do me a favor and don't read it.
 Good Hold'em Workbook July 3, 2007

This was a great book with real-life examples. Dan shows all points of views for each of the hands (not just what he would do). Talks about ramifications about different ways to play each of the hands. Good for the intermediate to advanced player.

The workbook is beneficial if you have already read part I and II. The workbook has problems for a person to work, based on the knowledge gained from the first two books.
If you want to improve your game. May 13, 2007

If you are tired of contradictory advice read this book.
The author gives an excellent tutorial with loads of real world examples.
Just the best. May 4, 2007

If you play NL Hold'em tournaments of any level or any type, Dan Harrington's series are the absolute best books out there and are arguably the best series on poker period. It doesn't matter if it's high stakes or micro buy-ins; casino, home games or online; Multi-Table, satellites or Sit `n Go's; an expert or a newby....... you must own this series.
Although an absolute newby would possibly have trouble with some aspects of this book, you do not need to be an expert at all in order to read and comprehend. I own all 3 in the series (and I will add that they MUST be read in order) and I have read each one cover to cover multiple times, and constantly refer back to them. The first book is held together by duct tape from overuse. It's not just a book, but a manual that you can always refer back to. His principals and philosophies in tournaments alone are great with ideas and concepts you might not have every thought of, especially for the beginner. No one has been as in-depth, giving strategies and then applying them in examples...... which makes it very easy to comprehend.
It's just the best.
