Is there anything you really can learn from reading a book? Hmmm….Can a
book teach you how to drive a car, tie your shoes, swim, be a football
player, etc.. Books are just to get you familiar with a particular subject.
I think those of us who went to college can co sign that books don’t really
teach you anything. I know people with degrees in IT but cant really
troubleshoot a computer. Experience is always the best learning solution.

“I’ve read every poker book.” Now go play 100k hands! ha ha! I’ve learned
more by playing than by reading, but my thinking when trying to
trouble-shoot difficult situations in poker would be much weaker had I not
read a lot. You say there is no more US internet poker, but you can still
play on Lock, Juicy and Bovada, withdrawal’s just take forever.

Waste of time. If you’re going to read a book on poker, get one that’s been
written in the past 5 years.

A book club I’m actually excited to join. First 3, (I’m guessing), 1. Super
System 2. Harrington on Holdem 3. Theory of Poker

Practice makes perfect, but you have to know theory also. I have read some
books and played number of hands and both develop my game. Also one must
always think about the exact game, not just follow percentages, push-fold
charts, Doyle, Harrington or Negreanu blindly. I like to bet my strong
hands and i like to bet air, but sometimes i check my monsters and
sometimes i bet strong with them. It depends. And no book is gonna teach
you when to do it.

Plus there’s the additional factor of skin in the game. The differences
between knowing what to do intellectually and whether to call $5000 with
your hard earned money. It can cloud your thinking.

This is so true. When I joined my local poker club the first thing I did
was, hand histories in hand, ask for advise in my play to the coaches
there. They half read it and gave me a library list to read ”before I
play”. WTF? That’s not to say that some of those books weren’t helpful,
Theory of Poker was eye opening and Ace on the River (not in their list)
was my code when I only played live, but a lot of that felt like a waste of
time.

Doyle also says in his book he thinks check reraising is a weak play most
of the time in his book. He says if a guy raises and he calls with like 55
oop and hits his set he will bet into them because most times the raiser
wil reraise him then he can just shove on them. And he will do the same
thing with draws instead of check reraisng it on the flop.

I’m reading Doyles Super system right now. Sounds like he is very agg and
will put you to the test and gamble a lot in his NL Holdem section .

Everyone Up-Vote. Real question that I think concerns a lot of peoples
game. How long of a break do you recommend to take before returning to the
poker tables after a down swing in poker? (Online NL of-course) (I play
micro’s with fish)

I learned when reading Doyles Book That J10 is the only connecting cards
tha will give you 4 nut str8s he says its a powerful hand? He also says he
likes AK more than AA because with AA post flop u when the min or go broke
because so hard to fold it with AK easier to fold if you dont hit and u
might hit big hands with them? postflop

Wow… I was literally just thinking about this and I come onto my home
page and see this, nicely put! This was the problem when Harrington on
holdem came out, people tried super tight and complained when it didn’t
work instead of just taking bits and pieces to improve YOUR game

When I first started playing I did really well, but then I read Harrington
on Hold Em and a few others and didn’t do as well after that. I think I
started ignoring my gut in favor of thinking about “what would Harrington
do?”

fuck this guy, he never comes through with weekly videos like he had said
before- not consistent at all, lost a fan(at least that’s what i sorta
thought) here, he might seem confident, but too arrogant

That used to work in live vegas high stake cash games 25+ years ago. Doyle
even commented how releasing that book forced him to change his game.
