fold this book.
4. Januar 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
This book might be encouraging for someone who has never won at all and needs a push to do so, but it contains very little real information other than to be aggressive. I read this book with a highlighter pen in hand and only used it a half a dozen times or so and I was being generous. It reads much more like he sat around and talked about how he likes to play and then had somebody type it up than any sort of useable strategy advice.
A little information is a dangerous thing...and this book reads like he wants you to have just enough of his attitude to think you can play him, but he doesn't want to give you enough insight to actually win. You are left with the feeling that he has withheld much more than he has shared. I for one would be happy to think that my opponents were basing their strategy on this book.
Be aware also that this book is shockingly padded. Listed as 191 pages, Erick Lindgren wraps up his portion on page 129, followed by 30 pages of completely irrelevant and instantly outdated useless lists of WPT money leaders which even if they were helpful could easily have been condensed into 2 pages tops. Next comes 20 pages by his co-author which delve into all sorts of math that can be replaced with 2 simple charts that are included.
Very light on content, I would rate this a definite pass. It mostly is beneficial to show that if you DO win on the WPT, you will get all sorts of cushy, fluffy, lucrative offers to cash in away from the poker table!

Thriving NOT Surviving!
21. März 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Not the book for you if you are a beginner. It does not cover anything basic. I like that. Was tired of reading everyone's version of learning the basics of Texas Hold'em. However, if you've been playing for a while and have mastered the basics and have been thinking about jumping into bigger Multi-table tournaments then this book is all that it claims. Be careful not to mis-interpret what Eric says - I've seen a lot of players turn into radical loose canons after reading it. Perhaps they need to re-read the book. It's theme - play to win not survive makes perfect sense. While his strategies pertain to World Poker Tour events - it has it's place in normal bricks and mortar settings as well with on line Multi-table games. Good poker math and bluffing info bonus by Matt Matros at the end.

Buy the book and read half of it....
20. März 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
I wanted to buy a book that was written by a newer younger professional. I figured their view on poker today would be fresh and would address the current poker environment. Half the book satisfies that need.
The first half of the book does discuss strategy. Lindgren is aggressive and plays to win first place and sticks to that philosophy. The most valuable part of the book is the first half in which he tells you how to play his way. It is a bit hard to swallow for tight conservative players but if you choose not to adopt it then you'll at least understand your other type of opponents.
The book changes gears and starts telling you how to handle the bright lights and television cameras of the final table. Huh? He then has a chapter on what to do with a million dollars. Huh? There is then a section that spans a number of pages on a list of the biggest winners in poker. Huh?
The last two chapters are from the co-writer addressing poker math/odds. There are different approaches and I didn't adopt the ones from this book. It wasn't as clear as I wanted it to be.
If I could give the first half 5 stars I would then I would give the other half 1 star. I'll give the book the average of the two.
The book is cheaper than the more popular ones and even cheaper on Amazon. Use this book as a supplement. If you are a serious player, get the Dan Harrington books first.
