Welcome to J.S Poker - A poker blog with book reviews

"Read alot of poker books through the years and decided to start my own blog and write reviews for all of them. Reading poker books is one of the best (maybe the best?) ways to improve your game. Learn from the pros and you might end up with a unique winning style yourself in the end"

Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand at a Time Volume I

Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand at a Time Volume IRizen and Pearljammer make a good contrasting arrangement. This is because, Rizen is a looser player, whereas Pearljammer is absolutely stunning, when it comes to laydowns. The most amazing aspect of the book is that it moves through the thought processing that true pros tend to go through at the time of a hand. It can really help you out if you are assessing through a hand in a game.

I enjoyed various aspects of the book, such as the organization of breakdown of thought processes. It projects as to what they were thinking about, during the setup, flop, pre-flop, turn, as well as river individually. It is also helpful in updating the pot size in the same manner. This is an aspect, which had been absent in most of the books, which I have read.

“One hand at a Time” definitely proved to be a great reading. It was quite informative, and has actually improved upon my tournament plays already. Hence I would definitely recommend anyone to read this book.
