Poker has never been more popular—and thanks to The World Poker Tour’s new “lipstick cameras,” which let TV viewers see the players’ hands, it’s one of today’s fastest-growing spectator sports. For all those fans, Lou Krieger, author of the bestselling Poker Player’s Bible, explains what separates the winners from the losers. Starting with a solid explanation of the rules of Texas Hold ’Em (the pros’ favorite), he quickly dispels the misconception that it’s a game of luck. His 52 tips cover everything from figuring the odds to reading the other players’ body language. It’s an approach guaranteed to give both social players and serious competitors better results at the poker table, and TV viewers a deeper understanding of this deceptively subtle game.

This review is from: 52 Great Poker Tips: At Home, Tournament and Online (Paperback)
I think this book is ok. I've bought a few recently and it does seem to cover the main points. For me personally I prefer a more personal approach to poker theory, Phil Gordon's Little Green and Blue books, for example. Overall, for the price, this book has some good snippets. But if you really want to get into poker theory and strategy, which you do if you want to become a winning player, then i'd recommend Phil Gordon's books above and any one of Dan Harrington, Doyle Brunson, or David Slansky's seminal works on the subject.
