Really hard to read, I don't know why. I wanted to gouge my eyes out halfway through, and reallly didn't seem to be getting anything practical out of it for a long long time. [I]Maybe [/I]it was a style issue, but really it was a painful read, almost a dry technical psychology paper that was vaguely related to poker.

Bad advice, and plenty of it. It's a pretty thin (self published?) book. There are some ok/good suggestions, but a new player might find it tough to separate them from the bad ones. It's clearly aimed at someone just starting out at online poker, so that's why I don't recommend it.

This one is essentially 140 pages of unreadable math. Recommended if you are writing computer code or if you are zachvac.

I might add that the new Optimal Play book and Chen's Mathmatics of Poker book also come close to this, although Odds is even worse. Typical page looks like this:
