Book Reviews of The Theory of Poker: A Professional Poker Player Teaches You How To Think Like One

Book Review: A Good Guide to Poker
Summary: 4 Stars

Despite the fact that this book is a must have for any poker player (and it is), I must say it's not a complete guide for dummies. One must have some poker background in order to enjoy the full contents of this book, since the most I got from it is consolidating the knowledges I already had. For instance, most poker players are familiar with semi-bluffing, but the book somewhat provides a more indepth approach that will really explain what it's about, how to use it and why it's so powerful against the right opponents. You'll have to read it to understand what I mean. I also thinks someone should publish a book exactly like this, but focused on NLHE, since most information in this book is about "POKER" as a general sense and the reader must learn to "filter" what is and isn't valid for what type of poker he or she plays. That's the reason why I'm only giving it 4 stars; otherwise it would be a five.
