Poker Book Review - Thursday Night Poker by Steiner

Got it from the library the other day, and there are two really good chapters towards the back. (I haven't read the rest yet, but the writing style is clean/readable)
Cheating
Casino Poker

The Casino Poker Chapter talks about how good players from the local club tend to go to Vegas and are shocked at how dismally they get waxed. It explains various reasons why making that transition is so hard, and gives eight pieces of advice on how to not get taken to the cleaners. Probably worthwhile reading for anybody going to Baby Town.
