Title: Championship No Limit & Pot Limit Hold 'Em
Author: Tom McEvoy, T.J. Cloutier

First off, what this book is not. It is not a book for the beginner wanting to learn the basics of how to play hold'em. It is not for the low-limit cash game crowd (or any limit-game player for that matter), nor is it for people whose idea of tournament play is a loose $5+1 sit & go. That's not to say folks whose primary action falls into one of these groups won't enjoy reading the book or find some nuggets of useful strategy and ideas within its pages.
Just realize you're not the target audience.

This is a book written for poker players taking aim at high buy-in tournaments and/or serious cash ring games. Chapters in the book cover the topics of knowing your opponents, PL strategy, winning PL tournaments, winning NL tournaments, practicing for the WSOP, NL practice hands and Tales from TJ. A chapter on NL strategy is notably missing from the above list, but that's primarily due to the manner in which the authors weave discussion game and tournament strategy together.

Readers that have digested Brunson's Super System
