3.0 out of 5 stars Good start, but limited strategy, July 26, 2004

Wesley Mullins (Kentucky) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Winner's Guide to Casino Poker (Paperback)

Gamblers who are unsure of all the rules of a casino game or want to understand the basic concepts of when to hold'em and when to fold'em will find the information in this text to be useful. However, once the simplistic directions in this book are mastered, you will have to move up to more thorough and specific books aimed at one particular game.

By trying to cover all casino games, only cursory attention is given to mastering any of them. Therefore, with this book under your arm, you will be able to confidently walk into a casino and know that you are above-average at any table, but an expert at none.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction, April 25, 2002

Edward Beheler (Kokomo, IN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Winner's Guide to Casino Poker (Paperback)

For a beginner, this book is a good starting point to casino poker. Most of the in-depth material is on Hold'em and 7 card stud, but the book does skim over some lesser-played games too. If you're curious about getting into the game, the price is right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for those wishing to hit the casino, May 6, 2001

"samtheozzy" (Canberra, Australia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Winner's Guide to Casino Poker (Paperback)

This is an excellent book. It contains a great deal of information about what to expect when you enter a casino, the games to play and those to avoid, ettiquette etc. In addition to all this casino-based information it also has a wealth of knowledge on the games themseleves (hold-em, 7 card-stud, Hi-Lo variations, omaha and more) and at this price it is an absolute bargain. Perhaps the only area in which the book needs improvement is its information on tells and psychology.
