Mason: Book review?

[DrPhysic]

Mason,
I recently found a reference to a poker book from 40-50 years ago called "The Education of a Poker Player" by Yardley. Out of print apparently.Can still find it used, but quite expensive.

Have you ever reviewed it? Is it worth buying?

Thx

Doc

I'm not Mason, but I think he will echo my opinion.

It is well worth buying, but only for the stories, not for the advice which is outdated.

I got my copy from a friend who found it in a used bookstore for $3!

Regards,

Paul

This book is frequently available on Ebay and tends to go for about $10-15 + shipping.

Hi paul:

That's basically the way I see it. It's the best of the old time books, but you should get your advice elsewhere.

Best wishes,
mason
