Harrington on Hold'em Vol. 3
by Dan Harrington

The long awaited third volume has been announced due for publication late May/early June 2006. It will be in workbook style with problems and examples, which should nicely complement and review the material in the first two titles, which are Must Haves for any No Limit Tournament player.

In this book, Dan gives you problems to test how well you grasped the principles of the first two volumes. In addition, many of the problems focus on the key area that causes difficulties for so many aspiring players: how to play after the flop.

Pokerplayer Magazine review

The first two volumes in the Harrington series (Strategic Play and The Endgame) cover the entirety of a no-limit Hold’em tournament and are acknowledged by pretty much everyone (except possibly Doyle Brunson) as the bibles of poker strategy.

This, the third, is styled as a companion to the previous two, with 50 poker problems for you to work through taken from real life and online tournaments, and which concentrates mainly on one thing: improving post-flop play.

When should you bet? When should you check? What can you deduce from opponents’ actions?

Answers to all these questions are revealed as you work through the quiz-style book building up a score for a final grade.

The true genius of the book lies in the way Harrington dissects a hand to show you the correct play, even if in that particular instance it doesn’t pay off. And when a bad hand triumphs he shows you why it was a bad play – it’s all about maths and pay-offs, not speculative plays.

Most importantly the book teaches you how to think through a hand with precision rather than just stabbing at the pot in the hope you’re ahead.

Its aim is to make you think like a worldclass player and put your opponent on a hand. Buy it, read it and you’ll be a better player – it really is as simple as that.
