Winning at the crazy loose tables you find at the lowest limits of hold'em involves playing a different game than winning at higher levels or no limit, and this book walks the reader through the strategies that are most effective for low limits. In the end, the best tactic to combat this level of competition is very straight forward tight-aggressive poker. Patience and discipline are the keys to long term success. In this sense, the book does not reveal anything Earth shattering. There are a few sophisticated ideas such as raising (or check raising) with a draw on the flop to get your opponent(s) to check on the turn and allow you a free card (if you still need it.) Primarily, though, it's a very simple book. It takes an organized look at every phase of poker from a realistic perspective in terms of playing the loose, multi-pot low limit games. Thinking through poker strategy from such a specific point of view helped me tighten up my game and feel more confident even if each basic premise along the way was nothing new.

Ugh poker

Only read this one if you're playing the 2/4 or 4/8 Hold'em tables at Flamingo on the Vegas strip. Obviously a book on Low-Limit isn't going to win the big bucks, but you'd be surprised what a little persistence, -- 8 hours of it -- can turn into...at least a free buffet.

Good basic guide to the low-limit game.

A good book for those who are interested in playing low limit hold em games. While the book won't make you a huge winner the strategies involved will keep you losses to a minimum and should, over time, allow you to post a small profit.

This book was the first time I saw how a simple framework could create a consistent edge in decision making for situations of financial uncertainty involving other humans.

Great book teaches fundamentals of playing low limit hold'em.

This is the limit hold em bible.

Another good poker book. Good for 1-2 and1-3 games. I actually read it twice but still can't remember everything. So much to learn so little time. Jones mentions the specialness of the JT hand. I played it a number of times with mixed result. Just yesterday in I was low stack with JT, went all in, was called by a 8K and was good until the R was a K. Oh well. Good book for novices.
