5.0 out of 5 stars A very good book for advanced poker players, 1 April 2001
By A Customer
I don't want to write a long review about this book so I'll keep it short. If you are an advanced poker player and have various other books that give you starting hand charts and advice on how to play certain hands, but you want to move onto a higher level of thought while playing, then this is the book for you. Brilliantly written, concise, detailed and eye-opening, it added to my game plus infinitum. One of the all time greatest poker books ever written.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few books that works for us in the UK, 4 Jun 2002
By Patrick Moore (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of the problems with being a UK-based poker player is that, whilst the game here is mostly played pot-limit, most of the decent poker books are written quite specifically for limit games. Alan Schoonmaker's excellent book is one of the exceptions. Although it does use limit games to provide the examples (which means that you do need to understand at least the basics of limit play to get the best out of it), the nature of the subject makes this much less of a problem than in books about tactical play. The bottom line is that reading this book has improved my game dramatically.

1.0 out of 5 stars distinctly unimpressed, 11 Jan 2005
By greg the poker player (crawley, sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
sorry to disagree with the previous reviewers but i have a decent poker library and i have found this book to be the least useful.it seems primarily deigned to sell copies of other two plus two books.full of lines like"for furhter details see stranskys poker for advanced players"etc. it might be of use to a beginner who doesn't really know what their style of play is but advanced players certainly have no use for this book.all in all a disappointment and not up to the usual high standard of the publishers poker books.
