Easily compares against the likes of Moby Dick, The Heart of Darkness, Catch-22, and One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest as one of the best and most important bits of literature written in the last 200 years.

Not as influential as the first volume, but more technical instead. Still great for learning, particularly the changes necessary to be successful in short-handed tables and heads-up play.

This book is somewhat out-of-date, as is the first volume, in terms of the strategies that you will be up against if you are playing serious poker for large amounts of money in 2022. That is in part because everyone has read these two books, figured out the strategies, and learned to exploit them (to the extent that they are exploitable). That being said, it's a fantastic introduction to poker strategy with a ton of depth and good advice for how to improve that goes beyond the book itself (such as using computer programs that will allow you to compare hand outcomes). For most home players and amateurs, this would be a straight improvement on your style of play. Extremely highly recommended if you want to learn.

I read something like this on a poker blog [http://hammerplayer.blogspot.com/] recently and I agree: If you haven't read this book I am a better multi-table tournament player than you are. It's that simple.

4.75 ⭐️ — Yea, it’s every bit as good as the first and for me perhaps even more relevant to todays Poker world. Dan Harrington will be immortalised forever for this epic series of Poker strategy and insight, a true masterpiece & let that not be forgotten!

Like Poker? Weather you wanna be the next Phil Ivey, or merely take down your mates at your bi-monthly peanut game — just read it!!!

Very informative, especially the problems/examples, and the chapters on final table and heads up strategy. Builds very nicely on the first volume. I highly recommend both volumes. I am starting on the volume 3 which is a workbook of problems and so far it looks like a great way to test what you learned from the first 2 books.

Another good poker book. This is a bit more in depth than the previous two poker books. I especially liked that it had problem set at the end of each chapter. It helped me to remember the principals outlined in the chapter. Not the first book you should read.
