 The best book to get for tournament endgame Apr 01, 2010
By R. Rooney
Three legendary online poker players explain in detail how to close out a tournament. Each author gives a bunch of hand samples all taken from one tournament from the point of when it hits the money all the way until the end. I give this book five stars because for what it is it's the best book on the market.
There are a couple of things that people should keep in mind however.
1) It is not a beginner's book and if you haven't played that long you may not understand it.
2) Since they took the examples all from one tournament and specifically a tournament where they came in first, there isn't a lot of shortstack play included. Honestly, this shouldn't bother most experienced players because short stack shove ranges are pretty automatic.
3) Since it only includes from the money until the end, you pretty much have to get the first book.
4) It doesn't cover live poker so there isn't information on physical tells. However, most live tourney players will benefit as live players tend to be worse at reading betting patterns.
Overall, just an awesome book.

Top Notch Analysis May 13, 2010
By Seth Baldwin
The analysis in this book is even better than volume I. The authors do a great job of putting their opponents on hand ranges, estimating how wide those opponents are opening, how narrow those opponents would call a shove, and calculating how often their hand wins at showdown to come up with the play's overall expected value. Once you are able to calculate pot odds in your head (and I think most people do; if not, save this book for later) estimating your opponent's hand range is where it's at.

 not for the beginner Sep 18, 2010
By Jimmy Mac
This is a hard core instructional poker book. It is a compelation of poker hands that these highly qualified players have put together. They give great instuction, tips and insight into thier thought process. A beginning poker players eyes would roll toward the back of thier head reading this. Its geared toward the intermediate or advanced player. I like to think I'm in the vast pool of intermediate
players and I found this book very helpful and insightful although a bit dry to read. It is well worth the money and time for the right player.

Harringtom Plus Jun 06, 2010
By Kevin. Beek
This is an excellent book. It looks at hands played by three very successful online players during the final stages of a tournament. Their styles are aggressive and makes for interesting reading. The book shows why putting your opponents on a range of hands is critical to playing winning poker and gives insight into the thought processes these players use to rate their hand strength pre-flop, post flop, on the turn and at the river. It makes a nice addition to anyone's poker library.

A huge win if you're trying to improve your NL tourney game Oct 03, 2010
By D
I have read and reread both this book and Volume I. I was going to wait until I had time for a thorough review, but then who knows when/if I'd get to it. This book will help you get deep/win tournaments, particularly on-line. It will make you money, and quickly pay for itself even if you only play in small tournaments. Absolutely fantastic, I can't possibly recommend it strongly enough.
