who read daniel negreanu's book?

i heard that is a very good book,and a lot of people really likes it so i thought i should bought it but i want to hear your oppinion! thank you very much!

Which one? He has 3.

I have read them, and I like his books, but I think there are better poker books out there... namely the Harrington series, Super/System II, and Sklansky's books.

I read Power Hold 'Em Strategy. It's a big book, most of it written by other players. There is a section on beginner tournament strategy, another on limit, another on Omaha, etc. The sectioin on deceptive play by David Williams is just a bunch of examples, nothing really useful.

The last section in the book is Negreanu's section on his Small Ball System. I suggest reading it, because every time you see somebody betting 2.5 times the pot preflop, you'll know they are playing Small Ball and know what to expect. I'd suggest trying to get it from the library rather than buying it though. It's not the kind of book, like Brunson's or Sklansky's, that you will want to read over and over and study.

Yes i liked it a lot his style of play is very uncanny, but the supersystem is very effective you should take a look at that

A couple things I want to correct/comment on. First, there's no Omaha chapter (that would have been nice, but then it wouldn't necessarily be Power Hold'em Strategy).

And I'd have to disagree about William's chapter. I think it's one of the stronger chapters for two reasons: 1) Daniel's chapter only applies to tournaments with good structures (of which there are very few, live or online) and some cash games while Lindgren's chapter is mostly vague andoutdated, Brunson's chapter is unlikely to apply to many people, and Ng's chapter is unlikely to help anyone but Wasicka's chapter is widely applicable with some good advice; and 2) It provides many insights about playing against a wide range of opponents, styles, and recognizing your own image among other things.

(Basically, 1) above sums up to other chapters having a smaller focus audience.)

Next, it's probably not a good idea to assume everyone raising 2.5xBB is playing an entirely small ball game (although you're probably generalizing when you said that). Nevertheless, I agree it's a good chapter to read.

I think it's a good book to both own and read several times. Like all books, it may take you several readings to fully comprehend and take in everything, especially what you may have missed or not understood on first readings, or simply forgot.

And for gyk21, you can buy probably every book you could possibly want (on poker or otherwise) from Amazon.com.

I read 2 of his books, including the most recent. I thought it was ok, and I am a huge fan of daniel, so "ok" kind of dissapointed me. Daniel's section is awesome and his strategy is effective if you use it exactly. (A new player recently won the million on pokerstars using his small ball strategy from pokervt)

Now the other sections like todd brunsons is, tbh, horrible. His section covers high stakes cash games, and is like a begginers guide with the same cliche stuff. It's bad.

Eric Lindgrens section is ok, talking about online poker, but nothing really technical, just cliche stuff again(multi tabling,reads, ect.)

The begginers section(the first chapter) is awesome for noobs, but once again i was looking for advanced strat not that. So basically the only good part is daniel's, and I think he waisted his time letting others write in it. Should have just been HIS book.

IMO buy it and use his strat exactly if you are a serious mtt player. Cash game players, this is not what you want.

If you're talking about Negreanu's Power Holdem Book, then I'm a fan. I really liked his chapter on smallball poker, and it's interesting to compare it to Super System or Harrington's books. As for Daniel's first and third books, the poker for dummies rip-off books, avoid. They would only be useful for someone who has Never played poker, and there are even better books that suit that demographic, namely Johnny Chan's book.

I found three books of Daniel Negreanu in Amazon,they are:
Power Hold'em Strategy by Daniel Negreanu (Paperback - Jun 17, 2008)
Hold'em Wisdom for all Players by Daniel Negreanu (Paperback - Jan 9, 2007)
More Hold'em Wisdom for all Players by Daniel Negreanu (Paperback - Sep 9, 2008)

Which one do you like most?

i am slightly dissappointed in DN's work. i really like theory of poker.

Eh, I wasn't really too impressed with it. There are better books out there for whatever your niche is.

If you play cash games:
Sklanksy's NL Hold'em Theory and Practice
Professional No Limit Hold'em
Harrington on Cash (Unique perspective focusing on game theory play style)

Tournaments:
Harrington on Hold'em is my suggestion

Other games:
I don't have much info on their applicability, but Supersystem and SS2 cover a variety of games, written by well known pros, so I'd guess they know of what they speak.

Supersystem

Sklanksy

I am an enabler

Half.com which is owned by ebay has some good deals on used pokerbooks.

wow so do not even know that Daniel Negreanu has a book about poker ... probably not? interesting ... I was looking for and if you find a market in Romania have to buy immediately ... because Daniel is My favorite player....a good day

I agree with King above...Daniels section is great and the rest of the book...eh. I'm curious about the Harrington tournament books. I was listening to a Poker radio show recently and they mentioned how Harrington, after writing his books, didn't really follow along on his strategies. And they were also talking about, what has he won lately? I think to combat todays super aggressive freaks out there, the basics are great, but learning different strategies is definately worth while, so anything Daniel writes, I will read.

..Daniel Negreanu is a romanian player...isn't it..?..I am romanian to & I am his fan...I would like to read his books...:P

I am reading Power Hold 'Em right now. It's been pretty good so far, bout half way through it. I've picked up some good tips a long the way. I like the structure of the book.
