Just out - doesn't seem to be available in the UK yet (though Amazon are listing it, with stock unavailabe)
I guess this will be my next reading ...... wonder if he will have the same impact on cash games as he's reputed to have had on tourneys.....

GaF - following your advice I read the Harringtons (tournaments strategy) vols 1 and 2

Actually just finished tonight vol.2 and will deservedly have a short break from poker literature before I start vol.3

I have been very impressed (esp. by volume 2) and really believe it improved my game (though by judging on tonight's performance you wouldn't think so!!)

Anyway thanks for the tip

Fred

Also reading in this months pokerplayer mag, Gus Hansen has a book coming out about his win in the 2007 aussie millions, it contains analysis on every hand he played from the very first to the winning hand!
I think the Harrington and Hansen,s book have gotta be must reads.

I've ordered it tonight from Amazon(US) - both books for $46.14 and $11.97 P&P....not in stock yet, but gambling it wont be too long....

Buy it direct from 2plus2 and it's $59.39 and $25.06 P&P

Cant explain why it's 50% more expensive if you cut out the middle man, other than because they can get away with it

IMO nobody can give an intermediate/improving player sound advice on cash games in a book. Cash has more layers then tourney's and the deeper understanding of the game comes from painful experience and reading good strategy forums and blogs.

As for the Hansen book this is a MUST buy
