Poker news

There aren't many professional poker players who have received as much notice and acclaim in recent years as Daniel Negreanu. His four WSOP bracelets, two WPT titles, and numerous final tables and cashes have proven such attention and respect to have been well deserved. As a result, few poker strategy titles have been as greatly anticipated as Negreanu's new Power Hold'em Strategy -- perhaps even more after his much less ambitious Hold'em Wisdom for All Players appeared early last year. Those who have been awaiting the "big one" from Negreanu will not be disappointed, as Power Hold'em Strategy provides a great deal of useful instruction to the serious hold'em player.

A little over half of the 500-page text is occupied by contributions from Negreanu's five collaborators: Evelyn Ng, Todd Brunson, Erick Lindgren, Paul Wasicka, and David Williams. Such a group -- all of whom are in their 20s and 30s -- together present a representative cross-section of that younger generation of poker players to which "Kid Poker" himself belongs.
