My girlfriends wants me to win the WSOP 2006!!
Hi All,
If you have read any of my previous posts, I am taking a break from Poker as got bored of cash games, and am quite enjoying the break. Anyway just moved into a flat with my girlfriend which has Sky and have seen highlights of the WSOP 2005. She says why don't I enter that, I told her that entrance is $10,000 and I would get knocked out in the 1st day, but she has faith, and so told me to start playing these MTT games and try and get an automatic qualification place through these online tournaments. I have played about 20 of these in the past in total. Best was 16th in a +1000 field, but to be honest, don't really play like the pro's. Just play extremely tight, and hope to get good cards so usually never going to win a tournament.( eg don't raise middle low PP, just limp in, etc and will fold if I don't hit my PP on the flop with overcards) I know this is C%ap play, so need to improve! Could you recommend what the best books for these MTT. I don't want to disappoint her in the next WSOP tournament ;-) Many thanks ZCAHV82 |

I own it, but I play almost exclusively limit hold'em ring games. I've read portions of it, but not the whole thing. I like how he walks you through the process of analyzing the situation, stacks, players, hand, etc. It seems like it'll be a great book when I get around to it. I'm too busy working on my limit game right now.

Read Phil Hellmuth's "Play Poker Like the Pros" and I'll see you next year at the ME.

Sounds like you need "Kill Phil". It's the perfect book for someone who plays the 'old school' game that you describe.
