Customer Reviews and Description As a casual poker player (small stakes once or twice a month with friends) I win as often as I lose, most often ending within 10% of my initial buy-in. I wanted a book to give me a better perspective on my betting habits and on the the odds of pulling my flush/straight/full-house to try and improve my overall winning percentage. This book offered me real advice on these topics this as well as added bonus: a lot of information on how to read my opponents hand strength by understanding their betting habits ... Read More |

|
by: Bob Dancer List Price: $16.95 Amazon.com's Price: $11.87 You Save: $5.08 (30%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I thought this was going to be a tutorial. It was more of the story of a professional gambler and how he got lucky. It was an interesting read if you can get through the narcissitic "I'm the greatest parts" |
| 1105. Holidays in Hell | |
|
by: P. J. O'Rourke List Price: $12.00 Amazon.com's Price: $9.60 You Save: $2.40 (20%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This is one of the funniest books on travel written. I have lived overseas for nearly a decade, have traveled for about 5 years, and have been to approximately 50 countries, some for lengthy periods, some dozens of times. All I can say is that PJ is telling the truth and Rick Steves is for people who can't handle reality. I LOVE the essay on the "Euroweenies". Americans get a bad rap when going abroad - I know because I have run into enough rude English, German, French and Australian tourists to want to stay permanently away ... Read More |
| 1106. The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) | |
|
by: Ira Steven Behr Amazon.com's Price: $6.00 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I originally bought this book hoping to get the entire list of 285 Rules. Guess what -- the book only has 70 of the Rules. The reason being, that the full list was never revealed on the series. (Yes, there are apocryphal lists of the rest of the Rules circulating in cyberspace, but they are fan-written and not canonical Trek. Hence, they are not included in this book.) Perhaps more Rules will be made public in future movies. The book does have some blank spaces at the back to list new Rules as the appear. But until they do, we'll have ... Read More |

Customer Reviews and Description Face it, if you bought Steel Battalion, you'll want to make sure you can maximize your investment in the game. I suggest this guide for every Steel Battalion owner...not only is the art amazing, the maps and strategies are useful as well.

Instead, you are given general advice and tips as to what actions you should take in each mission and which mechs are best suited for that particular stage. The authors do a good job of not spoiling the game for potential ... Read More |

The music is printed well, and I especially like the fingerings that are included. Worth at least twice the price! |

from: Focal Press List Price: $44.99 Amazon.com's Price: $30.59 You Save: $14.40 (32%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I bought this book because of the glowing review it received in American Cinematographer and then soon after it was the requred book for my cinematography course at USC Film School. I have dozens of books about cinematography, and this is the only one I've ever seen that covers every aspect of cinematography. Most books are either sort of airy, light-weight musings about aesthetics and philosophy and the other kind is strictly technical: lenses, exposure, etc. This is the one book that covers just about everything you need to know in ...
