Default Re: quick review of Harrington on Holdem

[ QUOTE ]
I have just completed the book for the first time. Being a 15-30 limit player for 17 years, i want to start playing some of these NL tourneys.
I found the book to be very helpful, in that it gives a solid foundation from which to operate.
Some of the advice is directed at complete novices, which is to be expected, but i found the book to be very instructive as too how you need to think about the game, and the various situations that come up over and over again.
He gives the framework , and the rest is up to us, as it should be.
Rather than just tell you basically what to do, he tells you how to think about these situations, which is way more valuable.
when i first started playing limit holdem, i learned to make plays, but i really didnt fully understand why i was making them. Get this book and your poker will improve.

good luck

Book 1 seems like it will be applicable to ring play too.
