Customer Reviews: Read 15 more reviews... The Best Poker Book I have read! December 17, 2008D. Kovachev This is by far the best poker book I have ever read! There are hundreds of books explaining all the technical and mathematical aspects of the game, but every serious poker player knows that those are just the foundations of a good poker player. To be a world class player, though, you need to be very good at the emotional and psychological aspects of the game, and this book has the best content on that topic. Anyone who has problems with tilt and variance, you must read this. If you want to be a well lubricated poker machine, this book is your oil! I highly recommend it! If your game leaks, this will help December 6, 2008Brunello (Honolulu) If you are a relatively new player, as I am, you find yourself constantly falling into a non-optimal mindset. Over time this creates leakage that makes you a loser no matter how well you otherwise play. This book makes that point in a compelling and interesting way. I'm leaking a lot less and thinking a lot more. Who would I recommend this to? Someone who is trying to take their game to the next level. Particularly if you find yourself steaming even a little bit. Who wouldn't I recommend this to? Advanced players or those looking for detailed game strategy. excellent -- 90% of this book is applicable to backgammon November 2, 2008Lord Gammon this book covers your mental attitude and how to handle bad beats. I am a backgammon player not a poker player. 90% of this book is applicable to backgammon. I took a risk with this book and delivered what I wanted. Thoroughly recommended. The second best poker book I've ever read! September 8, 2008Francesco Radici 1 out of 2 found this review helpful You can't be a PPP without having read this book. Seriously, poker it's a game of man played with cards, and this book will teach you how to master your attitude to that. Great. Amazing book for poker. Don't expect strategy tips. August 1, 2008B. Castillo (East Coast) Arrived quickly. Excellent book for understanding how to recognize tells with yourself and others and what to do about it. Helps you get over the 'bad beat' and prepares you for long sessions and keys to success.
