Default Thank you, Jackpot Jay

from this week's ESPN Page 2 column:

What book(s) do you recommend for newcomers to hold 'em poker?

-- Matt, Boston

Matt, if you are a true beginner, I'd recommend "How to Play Poker Like the Pros," by Phil Hellmuth. It's accessible enough for a newcomer without any talking down, and the writing style is entertaining.

I'd rather the true beginners not read ANY poker books and just continue to come down to the local cardroom and take their lumps.

How much money are you going to make off a player who only plays top ten hands?
