 Rating:  - Nice insight in the thinkings of a great poker playerIn this book several times poker champion Gus Hansen lets us in on his thoughprocesses around every hand he plays in a major tournament. You will get a lot of "Aha!" experiences when he explains his, at times, seemingly irratic play. A very entertaining book that is not too heavy on the head. Rating:  - Great Insight into the Mind of A MasterWatching pros play poker is often confusing. Some of their decisions seem strange, counterintuitive, and just plain wrong. This is especially true of Gus Hanson, who frequently makes plays that would seem clinically insane if it he didn't consistently wins huge amounts of money. Watching him go all in with nothing in his hand and no draws leaves the viewer wondering "What was he thinking?" He answers that question in "Every Hand Revealed." He gives a play by play analysis of what he ... Read More Rating: - Very intriguing bookVery good book. This is basically a recap of every hand Gus played on his way to winning the Aussie Millions main event. Great look into the mind of a dangerous and tricky player... Tons of hand analysis, obviously. Very interesting to see the good hands, the bad hands, the steals, the bluffs that worked, the bluffs that didn't... You can sense his mood swings up and down, sense the changes in momentum... a very engrossing and stimulating book. Lots of good ... Read More Rating: - Highly enjoyable book about poker thought processes, not "HOW PLAY POKAH"This is a very refreshing and fun read. You do have to know the basics of no-limit Texas hold-em, and have some basic understanding of the theory behind the game, but you don't need to be an expert to enjoy this book and get something out of it. It is NOT a book on how to play. It is a deep examination of how Gus thinks about each and every hand at the table, including many that would be ignored as inconsequential by others, but always with a reason. For examply, he will include a hand where everyone ... Read More Rating: - Original, Insightful, and Highly entertaining!What a wonderful book. I have a library of about 15 poker books and this is my favorite. It does not teach poker theory, as do others, but it does give the reader great insight into the mind of a (not so) madman, while reading like a suspensful page turner. I have not seen any other book like it, and it stands out as fresh and original in a sea of poker books. |
