    A Great Introduction Into Texas Hold 'Em
  

*by N***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 28, 2008*

A friend of mine had me over to play texas hold 'em, which was my first time ever actually playing the game. I decided I needed to 'really' learn how to play the game. I read that Harrington's books were the best, but being a beginner, I could tell that that book might be too complicated for me, so I got the Illustrated Guide instead. I think it's a great book if you're only interested in learning the rules of the game, and how certain hands are played. I thought this book was an easy read, and the illustrations made it easer to read. I would read this book first, before trying to read one of the more advanced popular books out there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great beginner's resource
  

*by H***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 9, 2016*

My poker library consists of over thirty-five books, most dealing with tournament poker.  I am a successful player, having won major tournaments--one on  television.  Thie Illustrated Guide is the book I always recommend for the beginning texas holdem player. I bought this recent copy for a young player struggling with the basics of the game. Few other texas holdem books provide such a clear, concise, tutorial-self testing format. Specific situations provide a launch pad for discussion of basic principles. There are better books for the advanced player, particularly the Dan Harrington books, but the Illistrated Guide is a great entry level resource.

    Good for a start
  

*by M***F on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 29, 2019*

The case by case quiz format with easy to read table diagrams make this book a great introduction to the game of limit Texas Hold’em.However, after you’ve read the book and played awhile, you’ll want to read Small Stakes Hold’em by Miller/Sklansky/Malmuth. Sklansky’s preflop hand rankings are the gold standard and Miller instructs how to count overcards, hidden outs and factor backdoor draws into your odds.On page 50-51 of Purdy, he advises to fold without considering THREE backdoor draws and an ace overcard.  You should call the flop looking for a helpful turn card provided that your sitting at a typical loose-passive low limit table where you’re unlikely to be raised. Elsewhere he advises folding a 54 suited connector without considering whether or not the table is loose-passive.
