Re: Play Like Chan (new book)
On the back cover, there is a quote from Hellmuth that claims Chan is the best poker tournament player he has ever faced...sound familiar? Chan had the exact same quote in Hellmuth's book - Play Poker like the Pros.
This book also appears to be similiar to Hellmuth's in that it has small sections on selected games. The problem with that is that it only covers the basics for a few games without enough to really master one. It looks to me that it will be a very beginner book with nothing significantly different than the other beginner/intermediate books out there.
With Johnny's unique and fascinating background and experiences, I really think that this book would be more attractive if it included anecdotes and stories from some of his tournaments...I mean..this guy is a legend! Very few players have the iconic status of Chan!
