Here's the link if any1 wants to read it: Phil Hellmuth - 'Play Poker Like The Pros' (http://www.blondepoker.com/books/210008.html) Title: Re: "Poker like the Pro's" Review Post by: redsimon on December 04, 2005, 01:19:47 PM Good review Snoopy. To be fair to the author, most of it was written/rewritten by Andy Glazer and was way behind schedule. It shows in the rushed nature of the chapters on NLHE for sure. I agree though the O8 section is OK, the rest is definitely at the low end of strategy books and the guidance on how to play the "top hands" in LHE will bankrupt you in most online games.

I was surprised when I heard this book being berated for Phil's bragging and gloating. Yes, this does occur, but not as frequently as people suggest.
