Danny doesn't give up too many secretes Danny, I'm coming after you boy. Its a good book, but the majority of it was written by other players.
I gave it 4 stars just for that. Davids williams area was decent.lots of window dressing around negreanus coveted small ball strategy chapter. Great for the daniel negreanu small ball section but everything else in the book wasnt all that helpful. Ng section was amateurish at best.
DANIEL YOUR THE BEST WHAT A DIFFRENCE I WAS OK PLAYER BUT AFTER READING THIS BOOK I TURNED 100 DOLLORS INTO 47,000 IN 3 WEEKS I STILL CANT BELEIVE IT DANIEL GIVES YOU SO MANY DETAILS THAT ARE VERY HELPFUL I FOLLOWED EVERYTHING HE SAID TO THE DOT AND TURNED MY GAME AROUND COMPLETELY . I CANT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS BOOK IVE READ IT TWICE ALREADY.
Also, 2/3 of the book is not written by Negreanu. He is definitely holding back information. No real reason to purchase the book; all the other stuff he talks about is well known stuff. Daniel Negreanu is best at reading his opponents. This book is a scam. Just two short paragraphs. Out of 485 pages in this book, he talks about 'tells' for just one page. And that one page isn't even very good.
It also allows you to take advantage of your greatest edge when you are playing lesser experienced players, post-flop play with a confused opponet. Davids Williams section on "Mixing it up" is especially craptacular, and while he did a good job I have to imagine that they could have found someone better than Todd Brunson to write a section on high stakes cash games. Negreanu's section on "small-ball" has helped my tournament play greatly. While negating the novice players greatest edge, pre-flop aggression with small odds advantages.A word of advise though, skip straight to Daniel's small ball section, the ~350 pages leading up to it is basically a mix of crap and regurgitated concepts. Basically the only other portion of the book with any value is 3 pages by Brunson titled "Dealing with Mega-Loss". Although, if you do not have the discipline to play in position, give up hands to resistance, and avoid big pots with small hands you're going to take a beating playing with a "Small Ball" style. Also, it is difficult to apply it to poorly structured tourneys where you don't have the chips to make numerous moves over a long period of time.The small ball style that Negreanu shows you will open up your play without taking huge risks, and develop a style that will get you paid off on your huge hands without it being obvious that you have the best of it.
