Product Description
In Play Poker Like the Pros, poker master Phil Hellmuth, Jr., demonstrates exactly how to play and win -- even if you have never picked up a deck of cards -- the modern games of poker, including: Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Seven-Card Stud, and Razz. Phil Hellmuth, Jr., a seven-time World Champion of Poker, presents his tournament-tested strategies to beat any type of player, including: - The Jackal (crazy and unpredictable)
- The Elephant (plays too many hands)
- The Mouse (plays very conservatively)
- The Lion (skilled and tough to beat)
Play Poker Like the Pros begins by laying out the rules and set-up of each game and then moves on to easy-to-follow basic and advanced strategies. Hellmuth teaches 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 staying cool under pressure. There are also special chapters on how to beat online poker games and an inside look at tournament play.

 One of the Worst Books on Poker October 14, 2008
Eric R. Nelson (Kansas City, MO)
Play super-tight and worship the Phil... See? Now you don't have to buy the book.
This book owes me a lot of $$$$ October 28, 2007
Mr. Jonathon Mourcella
Dont want to say too much, but this book is awful, lost a lot of money after reading this book (I was a beginner) Invest in anything Sklansky written, as after reading them i won it all back and more and are now quite successfull on the lower limits
HELMUTH IS A JOKE! AND NOT A VERY FUNNY ONE AT THAT!
This book was designed to help people loose

A great overview and basic skill training and up to advanced learning. Well worth the money because this book will improve your skills no matter what level you already play on

Phil Helmuth is as annoying in his writing as he is around a poker table. The book is part infomercial for various preferred casinos and web sites, part instructional manual for novice to intermediate players, but mostly a vehicle for Phil's ego. Hardly a page goes by without Phil reminding us what a great poker player he is. A psychologist could have a field day w/ his overinflated ego. As far as the content on poker play goes, it's better than most books for novices on the subject.
