by MATT MATROS
Customer Reviews
A refreshing, entertaining read, April 13, 2005
Reviewer: Richard D. Pernice "Bumblebee711" (Lake Zurich, IL USA)
Matt Matros has written a poker book that both teaches and entertains. How refreshing! Matros does an excellent job of instructing the reader without putting him/her to sleep with the same old tired advice. I found myself liking this guy more and more as I read his story. He comes off as a very intelligent, yet humble guy. He's obviously done his homework on poker and in turn shares his experiences with us in an easy to understand format. I think both beginners and pros alike will enjoy and benefit from this book.
Enjoyable and Educational, April 8, 2005
Reviewer: Polly Darcey (Boston, MA)
This is a great book to read and it is educational as well. The author states that you can live through his poker experiences and learn from his mistakes by reading the book. He did an excellent job of going back and forth between his poker instructions and personal poker stories/experiences. It makes for a delightful and interesting read. And it doesn't drag like most poker books. I would recommend this book to novices and experts alike. I think I can honestly say that Matt Matros is the best poker author out there right now.
