lol,  I was joking mate.  It is crap,  I got it for Christmas a while ago and could only watch 10 minutes of it.  If you look at my stats you will see how much of a fish I am.  In terms of poker books , I am reading the Harrington cash game vol 1 at the moment.

Tommy Angelo's - Elements of Poker is the nizzles for anyone who wants to try a non strategy based poker book. I can count on three fingers the number of poker books that i've read that have noticebly made me a better player and that's one of them.

100%, have u finished it m8? i been watching his vids on DC, absolutely amazing. trade?

Super System isn't a good book, maybe in it's day it was, but things have advanced so far

Harrington on Hold 'em
Small Stakes Hold 'em

^^Good places to start

I agree Harrington on Holdem is a class read!

i liked that to, have a signed copy, don't think it adds much to the value though.

LOL! Well, you sold me that bluff pretty well!

Ain't Harrington the one who says to fold virtually every hand? Not my style, won't be buying that.

surely it not being your style is a good reason to read it? no point in buying a book that tells you how to play how you already play

Understand your point, but how hard is it to play tight? And when you do play a big hand, how will you get action? Maybe Harrington has the answers, but I'm not interested. I play poker for enjoyment as much as profit, and folding all the time is not my idea of fun.

Elements Of Poker for me.
