Negative Positive
Title: Can't recommend this book
Review: It dissappointed me.First of all, the title is misleading: 'Dirty pool: Playing to win'.'Dirty pool' in the book means a couple of examples from common safety play.I was expecting something like practical pool jokes or some extreme maneuvers people have done to win a game.After recovering from the first disappoinment, the second one followed. Issues in the book are lame and cheaply presented.My opinion is that 24,95 $ is a horrible list price from this book. 5 $ would be appropriate. If you know nothing about pool, this book might have someting to offer, but why bother while there are cheaper books on the market, which coversame issues and lots of others more accurately, widely, interestingly, with more pool credibility.The author mentions Capelle's and Byrne's outstanding books, which means he knows the current standards of a good pool book.What was the motivator of producing this book then? I can see only one..cashing people out!
Is the review positive or negative?
