Customer Reviews

its a rip off
This book is more like a quick money making scam by someone cashing in on the surge of poker book sales. He offers absolutely nothing of benefit at all. There is page after page of filler. I honestly felt like a sucker after reading this book. The author is a business man and he is the only person that benefits from his book.
Buy harrington on hold'em - by far the best of all the books that I've read.

Don't let the title fool you.........
80% of this book talks about hold-em odds, including pot odds, implied odds and basic percentages. While the tables are very easy to read and understand, it is somewhat basic. The content at times is watered down, but for the most part the facts Nigel presents are straight forward and to the point.

Now for the down side of the book, the first 20 pages or so talk about "great" poker players whom most of us have never heard of (from across the big pond). Also, I'd say 10% of this book really deals with online strategies, but it did enlighten me a bit in that area.

I read the book from cover to cover in less than 3 hours. THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR ADVANCED PLAYERS, but for beginners.

All in all, its a decent book for the price.

This book offers nothing to the poker literature
This book might be the most useless book I have ever read on poker. It offers nothing in terms of strategy or content that isn't available in just about any standard poker book on the market. The "enlightening" real world examples of internet pros also offered nothing, such as successful strategies they might use, etc.

Save your time and money and invest in a book like Killer Poker Online instead. This book was so bad I actually threw it out after reading it, which is something I never do.
