John Vorhaus is unlike any other Poker author in that he is first and foremost a writer, but even more, a philosopher about the game of Poker. His Killer Poker Books have all stood out from the competition in a way that other writers can't really touch and nor should they try. For doing so would be like Montel Williams emulating Plato. John Vorhaus is different. His writing about the game evokes self discovery as opposed to hand-to-hand combat, ala Harrington. Vorhaus approaches this angle with an introspect few of us players would have delved into otherwise. The thing is, you can know all there is to know about NL Hold'em, but to be ultimately successful, an understanding of yourself is critical to that end.
Enter Killer Poker Online 2. This is the 4th book in the Killer Poker Series that focuses primarily on no limit holdem and tournament online play. Now focusing on these games doesn't mean chapters of hand analyzing and "what would you do next" scenarios. It means uncovering your desires, emotions, greed, fear and other factors that propel you into such confrontations. In effect, Killer Poker gives you the power over such emotions to make the right decision in a game critical intersect. Does this sound confusing? That goes with the territory of discovering yourself as a poker player and a human.
I am not saying it's a tough read to understand, but you surely will find yourself rereading numerous segments of this book as if you were about to complete a huge puzzle in your mind and were only a few pieces away. In fact, In Killer Poker style, the writing goes back and forth from philosophical statements like "Deception is what you do to others, delusion is what you do to yourself" then to chat box ignorance like "can u be my bich?", all the while keeping you entertained, entrained, and thinking about your game like never before.
Killer Poker Online 2 includes some really intense chapters on sit and go tournaments, multi-table tournaments, and heads-up sit and go tournaments each of which were the value of this book alone. Now I don't mean cookie-cutter strategies. Vorhaus advocates your own strategy for each and every situation, but by adding his own humility, skills, and experience to these topics you leave each chapter with a frame of mind about yourself and your competitors that you absolutely know will give you an edge.Killer Poker Online 2 is an advanced strategy book to be used with others in developing yourself into a consistent online poker winner. By giving this entertaining, but deep thinking prose a chance to come into your game, it will certainly lead to a better bankroll. Mr. Vorhaus, please, don't stop!I can also add here that Will Wheaton's foreword was as interesting as many other poker books in their entirety, and can easily see a great piece of work from him in the future.
