Publisher 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 ten-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.

"I really enjoyed this book, because it had a whole bunch of authors, and its written in a semi- story format. Its a bunch of poker pros talking about crazy hands theyve had, how they played them, and then Phil talks about his opinions. I learned a bunch from it. "

— Jacob (4 out of 5 stars)
