Format:Paperback
There are many books that will teach you how to play poker, right from the fundamentals up to advanced play. This book is different to those books (and should probably be read after you have read one of them). It is intended to help you develop the correct mental approach to the game.
Whatever stage of development your poker game is at I strongly suspect that your overall game would benefit from reading this book. A change in the way that you approach the game could very well add to your winnings at the table. Those who struggle with tilt issues or seem to be forever complaining about bad beats will find the book particularly enlightening.
If you are looking for something different in your poker literature then this is it.

Format:Paperback
Just finished reading this book and would thoroughly recommend it to beginning players or those on the brink of becoming winning players.
There's nothing in the book that's out of this world or surprising but it does make you take a look at how you play the game and how your mind can affect your play. It's certainly made me take a closer look at myself and some of the mistakes that I make knowingly or unknowingly.
I've been playing for eight months and I'm just above breaking even. I'm pretty confident if I follow the advice in this book I'll become a winning player.

Poker mindset
I found this book interesting and is a good tool for any poker player as having a good technical base isnt enough to win long tournaments you need the correct mind set.

An average book
A different subject to many books which is interesting but much of the content is reptative and fairly obvious. Read more
