Re: Does anyone have a list of the worst poker book?
TJ Cloutier's book on Omaha is the same style as Huey mentioned in his criticism of TJ's "Pot Limit & NL HE" --bunch of light fluff with stories from the Texas days.
What's even MORE annoying is that he'll tell Holdem hand tales in a book that's supposed to be for Omaha Poker.
You'd think someone would realize Omaha is a complex game and put the pages to good use, but alas, no. Fill out the Omaha book with starting hands/stories--doesn't leave you with that much meat.
I really appreciate Dan Harrington in his HoH, especially the 2nd volume, going into detail and mentioning advanced strategies. I can read and re-read these books and about all the 2+2 texts. The other books aren't bad to read, say you're at a bookstore, get a coffee and read thru Hellmuth's book or TJ's book and you can get the basics if you're wanting to learn a new poker game.
