Gritty and Real
The title of the anthology is what initially captured my attention. Although the theme may not be typical of an anthology, the poetry is wonderful. Yet, what I loved the most about this collection is the way eachpoem reflects a moment whether self-reflective, angry, or lonely clearlyand succinctly without any exaggerations. I definitely suggest this book tothose who like poetry that is beautiful through its honesty and simplicity. ... Read more

I am a winning stud player
I have read almost all the stud poker books. This is the most insightful and the easiest to understand. I read and re-read this book and I win at stud.

So So book, but DEFINITELY not worth the scalpers price it brings
DEFINITELY not worth the prices people ask for this book. Not even close. It's getting to the point that they should probably reprint it sometime soon, if people are actually paying $100 for it (are people actually paying these prices for this book? I don't think so...)

Anyway, as far as the quality of the information, it delivers the basics on 7 stud games, but it doesn't offer anything that existing books don't already provide (for like 1/5th the asking price). The fact is, Stud is a pretty straight-forward game. It just doesn't have the nuances of no-limit games where pages and pages of philosophy are required. If you are seriously considering purchasing this book at these absurd asking prices, you are much better off taking that same $75, depositing it on a poker website and actually playing Stud, thus learning for yourself. The experience you get for your money will be worth a lot more than whatever you think you will be getting out of this book. ... Read more
