5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for single deck players
The first reviewer here didn't like the book because it doesn't cover double-deck. I felt the same way about "Winning Pinochle Strategies" because it doesn't cover single-deck. However, if you play single deck pinochle this book is for you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pinochle Player
This book is pretty worthless. It doesn't give some of the major variation of the game, such as double pack Pinochle where the winner bidders exchange 4 cards and such. Some of the melding scores are incorrect. I would buy a general card rule book, instead of this very outdate and incomplete book.

The author goes through the major variations of the game (3-handed; auction; 2-handed; partnership; etc) and gives tips and strategies for each type. The book was easy to read in my opinion and gave some great tips.

I would recommend this book for anyone looking to improve their single deck game. For $5 it's worth the money.
