Tom McEvoy, the 1983 World Champion of Poker, is widely recognized as a foremost poker author and a player of the highest integrity. In 1985 McEvoy wrote the first book ever published on how to win poker tournaments, but the publisher went out of business and the book went out of print. Then in 1995 he developed a publishing association with Dana Smith, his long-time publisher and sometimes co-author, and came out with Tournament Poker, which is often credited with teaching more people how to win tournaments than any other book in history. "Tournament Poker is one of the most important poker books of all time," Howard Schwartz (owner of Gamblers Book Club) write in his book review.--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

“McEvoy's Championship Tournament Poker” by ihategnomes, 25 May 2005

Limit: 1/5 No Limit: 3/5 Tournament: 4/5 Other Highlights: 3/5 Overall Rating: 3/5

The book isnt that bad, but its not that great either. Its nice to have a tournament book, and to cover games that are not Hold'em. It covers Razz, Omaha, 7-stud, 7-stud h/l, Lowball, PL and NL Hold'em. I believe it still deserves a read, but other books are probably my crucial to the beginning players.

More like a diary of some of Tom's successes (and he has had many) but only a few anecdotes. Buy one of TJ Cloutier's books (or Slansky's) for much much more insight.
