Product Description: One of the ten greatest books written on poker, this must-have book should be in every player's library. If you're serious about winning, you'll realize that most of the profit comes from being able to read your opponents. Caro reveals the secrets of interpreting tells - physical reactions that reveal information about a player's cards - such as shrugs, sighs, shaky hands, eye contact, and many more. Learn when opponents are bluffing, when they aren't and why - based solely on their mannerisms. Over 170 photos of players in action and play-by-play examples show the actual tells. These powerful ideas will give you the decisive edge. 320 pages
outdated It's full of bad black and white photos that look like they were taken in the '70s with players in disco cloths and mustaches, and dealers with big bow ties that looked like they stepped off the Blade Runner set etc... not at all representative of 'what' you will see when you play.
All kinds of tells concerning Stud poker and other games i don't play...
The text reads like an 'Amway come-on speech'.
There are a few interesting ideas but overall this book is poor.
This book is a must for any poker player If you understand the basic strategy the game, this book will give you what math and probabilities doesn't explain. It's amazing how easily you can you identify the strength of your opponent's hand, just by spotting a tell. This book you put you at a next level.
30 pages bound upside down and backwards this is an obvious tell. I'd rather not own a book that I have to flip over back and forth to read/reference.
returned for refund as replacement is apparently not an option.
mike caro poker tells fantastic book. 2nd hand but fantastic condition, was like new! great book to read. would highly recomend this book to all. :)
Great book I would give this book a 4.5 it's the first book i read on tells but it's a good book with a lot of information. Buy it if you play home poker games.
