Hellmuth's
“Play Poker Like the Pros”, is mainly an excellent first read for
beginners, rather than a deep conceptual text. It is a good quality
book for the intermediate player who wishes to quickly brush up on
basic strategy, get understandable advice, or find one of the few books
with meaningful Omaha strategy. For being a professional poker player,
rather than a writer, Phil Hellmuth succeeds in bringing out his advice
in a surprisingly pedagogical way, with first-class humor and clever
language. It is a delight to read. To sum it up, it is highly suggested
for all beginners, but also intermediate players looking for quick
reference work including Omaha and Seven-Card Stud. The most...

Spanier writes about the people, the games, the great hands, the
strange hands, winning hands, failed bluffs and remarkable skills of
some of the best players in the world. The book is also a tutorial.
Spanier analyzes many hands, many situations-not in a statistical or
technical sense, but from a player's standpoint-he shows the hands,
relays the moves and acts like an astute "kibitzer" who narrates to all
who will listen what has occurred and why. He gets to the point with
quick and to-the-point sentences and examples. Sample: "It was the hand
of the decade, a dream hand, perfectly played. It happened in a $5-$10
blind pot-limit Texas hold 'em game at the Mirage in...

Poker tournaments are very different from conventional poker games:
Chips change value; rebuys are available; players adjust their playing
strategy according to rebuys, etc. There are very few players who excel
at both live action and tournament play, but it can be done. To be one
of those players you have to learn when, where and how to shift gears
to survive. Author Suzuki (a pen name) has played many poker
tournaments and understands the underlying theory that governs
tournament play so this book should prove helpful to virtually everyone
interested in this form of poker. Author Suzuki, Sylvester
