Summary

Play Poker Like the Pros is the perfect introduction to the world of poker, including tournaments, home games, and online play. Hellmuth begins by explaining how to set up and play the games and then moves on to basic and advanced strategies.

You'll learn exactly which hands to play, when to bluff, when to raise, and when to fold. In addition, Hellmuth provides techniques for reading other players and avoiding "going on tilt" - poker speak for staying cool under pressure. There are also special chapters for advanced players on how to beat online games and an inside look at tournament play.

Not satisfied

Very little useful info.80% of the book is bla-bla that even beginners know.
2 stars only because I really like Phil as a player.

Bullets !

i enjoyed this so book so much, mostly because it was read by phil. his strategys are solid and has helped me improve my game no end, he also discusses the etiquette in poker, of which i knew very little about. the duration of the book isn't that long but i have re read it twice, to take it all in you will need to read it several times. well worth it, would like more poker books on audible. !

Dont buy this.....

unless you literally want to learn the rules to different forms of poker, this book is a waste of time. There is almost no strategy, just Phil rambling on about hands he's won and hands that he's busted out of tournament with.

For stratagy, you're better of getting Annie Duke and John Vorhaus' book 'decide to play great poker'.
