Message: [QUOTE="reglardave, post: 699828, member: 15394"] ALL of Hellmuth's books and videos are good.......if you're new to the game and don't know much. And Play Poker Like the Pros is no exception. That being said, now my honest opinion. I [I]hated[/I] this book. Phil is an incredible poker player, but his instructional stuff comes across as self promotional CRAP that caters to the simple minded. For good entry level reading, look into Tom McEvoy. He's written like a dozen books, alone and with various collaborators,and he knows his poop. And imparts it in a coherent, easy to read manner without all the smugness and smartassery(?). He won't teach you to dodge bullets, or how to win them all, but I've never read one his books without learning something useful. [/QUOTE]
