Summary: 5 Stars
Let me use gus's insights to his tournament progression to beat you. i don't want to give you the added insights as to how to adjust play as the tournament progresses. let me win my first tournament first and then read this book. You can buy it, but don't read it. wrap it and open it for Christmas of 2012...buy then I should be able to cash and win a WSOP bracelet...after winning the aussie millions and a couple of WPT tournaments...DON'T READ IT!Book Review: Entertaining blow-by-blow commentary
Summary: 4 Stars
I like Gus Hansen, and I liked this book. It is very informative to see how a true poker professional thinks, while playing hands in a tourmament, and through post-tournament musings on pot odds, strategy with blind/ante structures, and All-In plays.
One issue with the book is that if a few hands had not gone Hansen's way, the book obviously would never have been written. In other words, notwithstanding Hansen's superior play compared to the field, a lot had to go right for him to make this book possible. At the price, however, I'd say this is a must buy for any Texas Hold 'Em enthusiast.
Another issue for me is that, once Hansen worked his stack up and became one of the chip leaders, his play essentially becomes a clinic in big-stack bullying. Nothing wrong with that, but the lessons have limited utility for an amateur who more often than not finds himself or herself working hands in the middle of the pack in a poker tournament.
All in all a very entertaining book, and certainly worth the price of admission!
Book Review: Entertaining read but slightly lacking
Summary: 4 Stars
This book reads as if you were a little gnome inside Gus' head while he was playing the Aussie Millions tourni, which he eventually won. Some of his remarks are pretty entertaining. This format would be ok, if he also mentioned the hands he mucked along the way. I think a big part of the game is deciding weather to enter the hand in the first place. He'll walk through a hand as the big blind, then on the next hand, he has jumped to somewhere in middle position.
Although this book may have a place on your shelf, if I could only read one poker book it wouldn't be this one. It would be something like 'Harrington on Holdem'. Dan's the man.
