Kindle Version is a Perfect Copy!

This is a review of the Kindle Version.

This classic by superstar Hold'em Tournament player Dan Harrington is well regarded by experienced poker players everywhere. It is a "classic" and a worthy read despite the fact that some of the techniques are so widely known that they have lost much of their effectiveness. There is a multitude of good reviews on the content, which I will not discuss. Instead, I will discuss the merits of the Kindle edition.

This is one of the best Kindle editions of a paper poker book that I've seen so far - most graphics-heavy poker books don't translate that well. (I also own paper copies of this series, so I can compare the two readily). First, the text itself is not plagued by the transcription errors and typos that are common in most Kindle versions. (I don't know why it's so hard for them to proofread Kindle versions carefully before they put them up for sale, but that's another issue.) The text in this book is exactly like the original, without any transcription errors.

Second, the Kindle version does an excellent job of reproducing the diagrams from the original paper book. This book is loaded with diagrams, and some Kindle poker books don't handle these well, especially when you change the typeface size on your kindle. This book is outstanding in this area.

As I write this, the price discount for the Kindle version compared to the paper version is only a couple of bucks, but I can't complain. In fact, the kindle version to me is even more valuable than my paper versions, due to portability. The kindle is shaping up to be a great device for serious poker players, because we can keep our Gus Hansen, Dan Harrington, and other books all in one small package to read during travel time to the casinos.

Harrington on Hold'em

Good book! Good price! Good servvice! That about sums it up for me. I got a great deal on what I believe is a must read for all hold'em tournament players. This was delivered to me in a timely manner. This all adds up to me coming back to Amazon for my future book buys. Thank you Amazon.


Harrington on Hold 'em Expert Strategy for No Limit Tournaments, Vol. 1: Strategic Play

Reading this book was a watershed moment for me. I went from playing clueless poker & loosing every game I played, to winning poker & starting to hit end tables & $$$$ in online MTT's.
I strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to improve in Sit n'Go's to MTT's. It will give you a solid foundation on which to build your game.
Then again, maybe I shouldn't recommend it, because I'd rather more fish out there who can add to MY bankroll....

The Bible

This has pretty much become the Bible for Hold Em Tournaments. Even if you wish to develop your own strategy (which works best for the smartest players -- a strategy tailored to your own strengths/patience/bankroll), you need to read this book to understand the minds of your opponents.






#2 "Hold 'Em" text, after Harrington's Volume I.

Outstanding book on Texas Hold 'Em. I can't imagine playing without having read this. But read Volume I first.


Poker has taken America by storm. But it s not just any form of poker that has people across the country so excited it s No-Limit Hold Em the main event game. And now thanks to televised tournaments tens of thousands of new players are eager to claim their share of poker glory.

Harrington on Hold Em takes you to the part of the game the cameras ignore the tactics required to get through the hundreds and sometimes thousands of hands you must win to make it to the final table. Harrington s sophisticated and time-tested winning strategies, focusing on what it takes to survive the early and middle stages of a No-Limit Hold Em tournament, are appearing here for the first time in print. These are techniques that top players use again and again to get to make it to final tables around the globe.

Now, learn from one of the world s most successful No-Limit Hold Em players how to vary your style, optimize your betting patterns, analyze hands, respond to a re-raise, play to win the most money possible, react when a bad card hits and much, much more.

Dan Harrington won the gold bracelet and the World Champion title at the $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold Em Championship at the 1995 World Series of Poker. And he was the only player to make it to the final table in 2003 (field of 839) and 2004 (field of 2576) considered by cognoscenti to be the greatest accomplishment in WSOP history. In Harrington on Hold Em, Harrington and 2-time World Backgammon Champion Bill Robertie have written the definitive book on No-Limit Hold Em for players who want to win ... and win big.
