I mean come on people who has more credentials to teach the games of poker then the now 9 time Gold Bracelet winner at the WSOP. OK, now that I’ve completed my praising of the very worthy author of this book, let’s move on to the review. I bought the book about a month and a half ago, shortly after it came out. I was looking for a quality book that offered hand analysis, as well as elemants of the Psychology of poker. This book was a perfect match for what I was looking for. After reading 70 or so pages of the texas hold’em portion of the book, I began intertwining elements of the Hellmuth like strategy, into what I thought was an already existing sound strategy I had. Indeed before I read Hellmuth’s book I had the backround information that I needed to win on a regular basis, but the advice took my game to a different notch, and gave me added convidence. Now I rarely find myself on the loosing side of a poker game at the end of the night. When I do it’s usual a direct result of bad play by my counterparts, not bad advice from Phil. So to end my review I have just three words to tell you, if you want to win on a regular basis, and if you take playing cards seriously, Buy This Book!!

I have been playing poker since I was 8 and this is most detailed and easy to follow poker book I’ve ever read. I’ve never been able to figure out how to win some of the harder games, but this book really has made me know how to be a pro. I gave it to my neice who wants to learn how to play–so it’s great for beginners too. Thanks Phil Hellmuth–there’s a reason you’re the champ!
