5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide about online poker
If I were asked to write a book about online poker I don't know where I would begin!

1.0 out of 5 stars its a rip off
This book is more like a quick money making scam by someone cashing in on the surge of poker book sales. He offers absolutely nothing of benefit at all. There is page after page of filler. I honestly felt like a sucker after reading this book. The author is a business man and he is the only person that benefits from his book.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book offers nothing to the poker literature, November 3, 2006
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This book might be the most useless book I have ever read on poker. It offers nothing in terms of strategy or content that isn't available in just about any standard poker book on the market. The "enlightening" real world examples of internet pros also offered nothing, such as successful strategies they might use, etc.

Save your time and money and invest in a book like Killer Poker Online instead. This book was so bad I actually threw it out after reading it, which is something I never do.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring and worthless, November 23, 2006

Sammy (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
No new knowledge to be found here. Several places in the book there are errors, e.g. did you know that QTo vs QTo is 67% percent to win? Pages and pages of example hands with percentage to win calculations that I wouldn't trust anyway. Move along, nothing to see here. Went through whole book in 30 minutes, could have done that at borders for free.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad for the price..., August 5, 2006

This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This book is a decent option for a beginner book on online hold 'em, compared to some of the ridiculously outpriced poker books out there. The book has some very important lessons on hand odds and pot odds (which isn't specialized to online play). There's also a good deal of fluff to this book. The beginning is some worthless junk about "online poker pros" which will only make you think you can now go take on huge multi-table tournaments with ease, and some legal "fluff" and a beginner's dictionary. All in all, its not a bad book to start your online reading, but don't expect to get too much out of it as it will most likely only take you a few hours to read.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a complete waste., August 31, 2006
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This little book is just a title and empty space.

It's a complete and utter waste of time and money. Don't bother wasting either.

There is nothing of substance in this book that any decent online poker player shouldn't already know.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is rubbish, February 27, 2008
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This book does not live up to the lofty claims it makes. It is very basic and the information in it is also in most other poker books on the market.If you are looking for some avanced theory you wont find it here.

5.0 out of 5 stars A truly great book about online poker, July 19, 2006
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
The Master has written a great book here about online poker. Nigel Goldman's 'Make a Million from online poker' is the best of over 30 books on poker I have read. The athor sets out the scene well, with 3 true case histories of successful internet players, and then goes on to elaborate on the nuances of the game with a gantastic section on odds, when to call, etc.
A great book. Buy it. You won't regret doing so.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb book on online poker and strategy, July 25, 2006
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This is a 'must have' absolutely superb book on online poker and the strategy involved in the game.

The author guides you through the paces here at a leisurely pace to give you plenty of time to understand everything, and then hits you with what looks like at first a complicated maths and equation section, which once mastered makes the game very understandable and beatable.

I would go as far as to say that if this section was learnt by heart, you would be guaranteed to win consistently. I am certain this is the secret formula used by the pros you see on TV at the WSOP etc.

A great book, and very affordable, and highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous book about poker, August 13, 2006
This review is from: Make a Million from Online Poker: The Surefire Way to Profit from the Internet's Coolest Game (Paperback)
This is a fabulous and very well written book about online poker, and some of the information presented in it would be very useful if playing in live games and tournaments as well.
The writer obviously knows his subject very well and has a formidable reputation himself playing both online and live in competitions.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone contemplating or already playing poker online, and as said before a lot of the information in this book would be useful for live play as well.
The pot odds and maths section are very useful indeed.
A great value buy.
