Caro's Book of Poker Tells by Mike Caro (2003, Paperback)

Excellent book on poker tells for live games. Especially useful for draw poker and holdem. This book will help you pick up your fair share of "bought" pots, and help you get out of hands cheaply, when you otherwise might have went broke. Recommended read, an essential for any live game player.

Gave concrete examples of poker tells to look for. A bit outdated, but still valid today.Caro has played a lot of poker and knows how to share the info in a quick witted and fun way. I would buy another book from this seller.

This book was very informative. I enjoyed the photos which accompanied the tells and the review at the end of the book with a quiz. It was very easy to read and understand. I bought it to help with my poker game although I have yet to test what I have learned.

Good book lots of info. Applying it is the tricky part. Lets you know what to look for, and helps you find and fix your own tells. Does need to be updated though.

Having heard so much about tells, I thought "Well, Mike Caro has a fine reputation for clever play, so why not?". I was dissapointed! Apparently, with my experience and knowledge, I should not have expected heretofore hidden secrets. The value of this book is not, to me, what it probably was before people "got wise". At the time it was written it was perhaps worth the price. Now it may reinforce what most experienced players know, i.e. pay attention to the actions/expressions of opponents and gather as much information as possible, with proper caution applied. Fun to read, but not especially valuable to those with experience.

This book is a must have for poker players. If you are a good poker player but seem to get bluffed or fold winning hands this may be the book for you. Caro's Book of Poker Tells is based on the psychology and body language of poker. Written by Mike Caro the legendary "Mad Genius of Poker", who helped write The Super System with Doyle Brunson. This book has in depth detail to each poker tell. Using a title, category, description, motivation, reliability, value per hour, discussion, and best strategy for each tell. Not to mention a picture to give you a visual also. Personally I was having problems at cash games losing money due to the lack of ability to be able to play out of the box. Since i got this book and studied it. I have increased my ability to play out of the box and increased my bank roll. I hope it does the same for you.

This book will help you out a little in the tell department but imo is not worth the money. It is really outdated , i mean most poker room do not allow smoking anymore but there are tells in the book about smoking. Save you money and buy another poker book that will actually teach you something about strategy.

This is a great book by a great player Mike Caro. He shows you a way of picking up clues (Tells) of the strength of your opponents hand. Like are they bluffing or do they have a strong hand. I reccomend this book.

A lot of good information. Brings to light many things that you may have not noticed. I found myself thinking, dang I do that. Easy reading, short chapters about each tell.
