Negative Positive
Title: Rehashed and highly disappointing
Review: First off, Beat Texas Hold Em was written by Tom McEvoy, who has a reputation as a great and talented player, but a horrible writer/orator.Beat Texas Hold Em is essentially a stocking stuffer for the complete novice who has never even read an online article about Texas Hold Em strategy. Yes, precisely; such people do not exist any more. This book is filled with regurgitated and formulaic concepts and tactics and has nothing new to add. I'm quite surprised Cardoza Publishing, which made the authoritative bible on all forms of poker "Super System", would bother to publish this scant piece of work. It is neither entertaining nor insightful nor particularly useful.In the very least, it does cover all the bases. If you are interested in making an inexpensive purchase for someone who has recently become hooked on the game but who isn't looking to make poker more than a hobby, this may be of some use. Otherwise, don't bother.
