In much the same way that Beat the Dealer is associated with the game of blackjack, Super System is a poker classic that has more historical benefit these days than value as a poker text book. Many of the games it mentions aren't played or play very differently in card rooms today. Nonetheless, there are still many real gems of advice in its pages, especially regarding No-Limit Holdem, and the book is well worth reading. These days the book is more revered than it probably ought to be, but it will continue to belong on the shelf of every serious poker library for some time to come.
The book features chapters written by true experts in a given poker game:
- Mike Caro - Draw Poker
- Chip Reese - 7 Card Stud
- Joey Hawthorne - Lowball (and variations)
- David Sklansky - 7 Card Stud High-Low
- Bobby Baldwin - Limit Hold'em
- Doyle Brunson - No-Limit Hold'em
