owise1 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hi there, I got almost enough points on Pokerstars to get either of the following books: Internet Poker: How to Play and Beat Online Poker Games By Lou Krieger and Kathleen Keller Watterson (signed by authors) http://www.pokerstars.com/FPPStore/LouKrieger.html Championship Satellite Strategy: How to turn a toothpick into a lumber yard By Tom McEvoy and Brad Daugherty http://www.pokerstars.com/FPPStore/Daugherty.html Not sure if either one is worth it. I have most of Sklanskys books already. Or for 100 points more: The Psychology of Poker By Alan N. Schoonmaker http://www.pokerstars.com/FPPStore/Schoonmaker.html Which one(s) [or none] would you suggest? Thanks for your help, owise1 Link to post Share on other sites
Smasharoo 0 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 All fairly useless.Of the three, McEvoy's book probably has the most value, but it's marginal.Save up for the hooded sweatshirt! Link to post Share on other sites

One's on online cash games, the other on tournament strategy and another on opponent psychology. Its hard to answer a question like "which one is better," without some critieria, i.e what are you looking for? owise1 Link to post Share on other sites

Not really interested in a sweatshirt though. Have you read any of these books?owise1 Link to post Share on other sites

I was just hoping to hear that one (or more) are just bad books and not worth it. Thanks for your helpowise1 Link to post Share on other sites
rivercardbandit 0 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Sign up at pokersourceonline.com, use me as a referral and use the points you earn there to get the books they have available. Theory of Poker, Hold'em Poker for Advanced Players, SS1, SS2 and others.Sorry for shameless plug, but thought it relevant if you looking to get some books. Link to post Share on other sites
