I had the honor of reading the manuscript to this book before it was released. Mitchell had contacted me through my personal poker blog and asked if I would like to review his up and coming book on tournament hold’em and I couldn’t refuse!
I read the book cover to cover two or three times and thought to myself “these tips could never work” as I was trained to be a tight-aggressive player based on the works of Harrington and Sklanksy. However, I put my pride aside and decided to try about 15 or so of these awesome moves in my upcoming tournaments. Things turned out to be fantastic with the awesome preflop moves I used from this book! Also, the subjects on c-bets has really helped me be super aggressive on the flop, even when I didn’t hit any piece of it. I have since played 47 tournaments, placing in the money in 13 of them, and took down 7 of the them!
Bottom line: If not for this book, I would not have made it very far in the tournaments I have played in. Harrington on Hold’em is still the greatest series of books in my opinion, but if you really want to up your game and mature from the kids to the big boys, read this book.

This book is excellent! If you want a tool-kit of plays and how to use them to win a poker tournament, this is great.
First, most of the plays in here are new to me. There are some things I was never sure what to do. Like medium pairs. Do you call, raise, re-raise? This book explains what to do with these hands, when to do it, and why. The why makes it easier to recall in the middle of a game.
Second, the way the book makes you think about how to play a hand is very clever. For example, I played tight at the start of an event and now I realize that’s a mistake. I never wanted to move all-in and now I know that’s a mistake. I also thought tight-aggressive play is the answer and yeah, wrong again..
Third, I put this Tournament Book to the test the past week. I thought I was a pretty good player since I usually got to the bubble and either just missed or made the money. After reading this book, though, I often find myself with a big chip stack so I don’t have to worry about the bubble. Going to the final table this week, I’ve been the chip leader twice.
I may regret this review, but this book has already made me a much better tournament player. It’s simply a great tool-kit of plays that will make you a better player.

I had intensely studied the books refered to as the “poker bibles” yet I had been continuously finishing on the bubble in major tournaments. After reading “Tournament Poker: 101 Winning Moves” I finally had my first breakthrough and finished in the money in a $1500 No Limit Hold’em Event at the 2008 WSOP. The ideas in this book were key to my getting there. If you are looking for success – and the ideas missing from the poker bibles – then this is the book for you. Thanks Mitchell!

Im not one to write reviews, but I felt compelled to for this book which I consider a waste of money. I had read the reviews and thought this was a must have, but most of the tips here are pretty basic and not explained with any great detail.
If you want a real tournament guide, read Harrington
