A Fun and Insightful Take on the Poker Life
I really enjoyed this audiobook! It’s not just about poker but about mindset, risk-taking, and finding a balance between passion and profit. It discusses the lifestyle in a way that’s entertaining and thought-provoking. Even if you’re not a serious player, there’s a lot to take away about decision-making, discipline, and thinking strategically in life. The narration kept me engaged, and I found myself nodding along to many of the insights.

Learning Poker
I said to myself, ' Wow, I never heard of people who can’t play poker.' I have seen on television how people play poker. I don’t have any knowledge or rules on how poker works. I have witnessed Cosine, but I have never been to Las Vegas because I am located in Canada, and the United States is far from my house, making it a long drive. I decided to buy this audiobook to get a clear understanding of how the players think and do their magic. It looks fun and exciting.

Now I Can Surprise Friends With My Knowledge!
This book was entertaining. I have a very limited knowledge of poker, until now. This teaches you how to master the game with basic rules and then more advanced strategies. Poker can be profitable if you know what you are doing. I especially liked the 13 techniques to improve your game. This should help even a beginner like me! Make smarter decisions and develop your own playing style. This is helpful whether playing online or in person. Cool!

Clear, Engaging, Packed with Actionable Advice!
This is a fantastic guide for anyone looking to elevate their poker game. It breaks down everything from basic hand rankings to advanced strategies like "Small Ball", making it accessible for beginners and experienced players. I especially appreciated the emphasis on bankroll management and reading opponents, which are key skills that separate casual players from true professionals.
