Harrington on Hold'em Review

The Harrington on Hold'em series of books is outstanding for the intermediate to advanced poker player.  Harrington and Co-Author Bill Robertie are two accomplished gamesmen and understand the ins and outs of poker.

The layout of the book tackles topics relative to tournament poker and then various examples are presented where the reader actively participates in decision making and hand analysis.  Volume 1 considers general poker philosophy and how it is applied to tournament poker and early tournament play and situations.  As with the whole series of books, Harrington not only tells you why a decision is correct, but why other options are wrong.  Very logical and well organized.  Book 2 covers end game situations and difficult decisions that arise when the blinds are high relative to the chip stacks.  His mathematical approach to all-in situation takes the bite out of getting beat at the end of a tournament.  Like the first book, there are numerous examples that help clarify and solidify concepts within each chapter.  Book 3 is entirely problems where the reader can make decision and then evaluate his or her play.

 Go buy these books, you won't regret it.
