Sklansky on Poker
By David Sklansky
Sklansky on Poker combines Essays on Poker and Sklansky on Razz with new material plus a special section on tournament play. Many of the ideas in the essays section are not as sophisticated as some of the others that Sklansky has put into print, but they are still absolutely essential to winning play. This section contains chapters discussing such concepts as having a play, choosing your game, playing according to your bankroll, the three levels of expert poker, middle-round strategy, what your opponent reads you for, the protected pot, saving the last bet, extra outs, how to play a tournament, and many others.
The razz section of the book will show you how the experts play this form of poker. Even if you never play razz, you should still read this text if you are serious about poker. This is because many concepts which are important to all forms of poker are most easily illustrated by this game.
"Like most of Sklansky's books, there may not be a lot of words between these covers, but there are a lot of ideas. One cannot skim through the book and expect to immediately dominate one's game of choice. The information here requires some study, rereading and consideration away from the tables. The industrious student will be amply rewarded by this fine work." - Nick Christenson
