Online gamblers turning to guides and strategy books in an effort to improve their games have been offered a more accessible way of uncovering the secrets of poker.

A new advice website, pokerbooksonline.blogspot.com, aims to provide a comprehensive overview of useful tips and strategies.
Jim Moir, who founded the site, claims to have bought 30 guidebooks and spend $600 in the process, but found that “only four were useful”.

“I thought I would set up this site, just so people could know what the best ones were, and so they wouldn’t have to spend money on the useless ones,” he commented.

Last month poker expert Jon Eaton also listed what he considered to be the best poker books. “I suggest before anyone begins playing seriously, they read The Theory of Poker by David Sklansky. This is the bible of poker basically,” he commented on the PokerPages.com website.
