Awesome book for any player!

Jonathan does a great job elaborating on some higher order thinking skills that will help you to become a better player.

I learned a ton!

Great book for those that want to take their poker skills to the next level. This book is not for beginners nor is it for professionals. It falls somewhere in the middle, which was perfect for me.
I think it's better to read a paper version of this book because it's easier to see the hands, numbers, calculations but for those that don't have time for that this book will do, just be prepared to rewind A LOT!

A must read

Before reading this book, I was the guy Jonathan describes. A good solid player who would bubble or just make some money, but rarely win.

Since reading this book and applying the concepts I have won two and chopped three tournaments out of 15 entered.


This is a must read if you want to get better and win more money.

Thank you Jonathan

Impressive!!

I've been playing poker for some years now and I believe this will greatly reduce my tournament flaws.
Now I need to polish my EV calculations and try to take a win!
Great listen guys

Great tournament strategy book for poker

The biggest part of the book (playing with a stack of 125+ bbs) is not too useful for online play since the average stack is way less than that just a few blind levels from the start, but still this is gold for online or live players

Tourneys will never be the same. Winning consistently in the local tournaments is a thrill!
