Winning Low Limit Hold ‘em by Lee Jones

October 30th, 2004  |  Published in Books, Limit Holdem, Online Poker

I’ve been spending some time reading this in my lunch hours and it’s really interesting stuff.

I thought my dabbling with with games on my PC had me prepared to play against live opponents, but now I’m beginning to see how I can improve my chances of winning. It feels as if there’s a lot of information in here though. I can’t see how I can take it all in. I’ll have to read a chunk at a time and then try to play a little bit, then come back.

Books for beginners

I’ve spent some time looking at different books that I could buy to get me started.

Today I ordered “Winning Low Limit Hold ‘em” by Lee Jones and “Play Poker Like the Pros” by Phil Hellmuth.

Lee Jones’ book is supposed to be particularly good for the beginner at low limits.

So it looks like I’ll have plenty of reading to do.
