"""In our minds, this book is an instant classic and a must-have for any serious student of the game. Everyone who reads it will come away a better player."" -- Howard Lederer and Annie Duke ""Phil Gordon is one of poker's premier players and has few peers as a teacher of No Limit Hold'em. I would hate to have to compete with anyone who accesses the information in these pages."" -- Erik Seidel ""Poker: The Real Deal was the best introductory book ever, and this is the perfect 'graduation' book. It provides the key to leaving solid amateur play behind and embracing the first inklings of playing like a true pro. I now feel endowed with that intangible element of strength known as unbridled confidence."" -- James Woods ""Phil Gordon and his Little Green Book made the difference between me losing money and winning money. It made me a winning player."" -- Hank Azaria ""If I cared about poker at all, this would be the book I'd buy."" -- David Foley"
