Negative Positive
Title: For those truly willing to study the game.
Review: This book isn't going to turn its readers into a winning poker player overnight. Sklansky has other books that were written for that purpose.Instead, Theory of Poker is a book that explores the deep intricacies of the game. Understanding the knowledge within this book will help make the other information a player needs to utilize to become a winning player much more tangible.It's actually kind of a shame. When this book was first published, it simply revolutionized the world of poker like so few other events have.This is definitely a must read for anyone who intends to become a student of the game, but I wouldn't recommend it to beginners. Simply put, I have yet to encounter a long term winning poker player who has not read this gem. It's not going to turn a losing player into a winning player, but it will to change the attitude of a losing player, and most poker players are losing players.
