Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book
by Phil Gordon
Valuable sections include Cash Games AND Tournament Play; Sit and Gos; Satellites and Supersatellites. Nicely illustrated with many lessons, examples and analysis, it’s a balanced, smooth-reading textbook, some of which is based on the author's experience. This balance of common sense, strategies, ploys and an honest appraisal of what was going through his mind when he made his moves adds strength to this powerful, positive pack of lessons. One unique approach is to 'improve at poker is not by finding answers. It is by finding questions,' says champion Chris Ferguson in the foreward. This companion book to Gordon's Little Green Book does just that.

Victor Ramdin has joined the team at PokerStars.clm the seasoned professionals, but he is admired around the world for how quickly he has mastered the game, winning more than $2 million, so far, in his short career.
"You can't find a better team of players, online or off, than Team Pokerstars," said Ramdin. "Aside from joining the last three World Champions and some of the best poker players in the world, I'm really looking forward to joining with over 1,500 satellite players, who started out just like me, in the hopes of winning a gold bracelet this year. We're all part of the Team at Pokerstars."
Ramdin, a Guyanese born, Bronx, New York-based player brings a winning streak of altruism to the poker circuit. Recently, he donated more than $100,000 to enable 14 children and four adults to travel from Guyana to Chenai, India for life-saving heart treatments. Ramdin is also an avid supporter of Guyana Watch, a non-profit charitable organization that has provided medical assistance to Guyana for more than 15 years and has recently expanded its focus to improve education for Guyanese children.
His charitable donations are as impressive as his tournament successes, having finished first at the World Poker Tour Foxwoods Poker Classic in April and already finishing in the money at this year's World Series of Poker.
"Victor is a wonderful addition to Team PokerStars for both his card playing skills and his dedication to his philanthropy," said Lee Jones of PokerStars.com. "He has exploded on the poker circuit and we believe he will be one to watch at the 2006 World Series of Poker."
Team PokerStars brings together fourteen of the top players and strategists in the sport of poker including the last three WSOP Champions, leading authors, TV commentators, and magnanimous poker philanthropists. Their full bios and photos are available at: www.pokerstars.com/team-pokerstars/
