Harrington on Hold 'em Expert Strategy for No Limit Tournaments

We're pretty sure we need to brush up on an overall strategy for playing No Limit tournaments. So far many books just haven't gone in that direction until now - Harrington is a top player and knows his stuff and I've also seen him on many final tables so perhaps this is the book for me.

No limit hold'em, obviously, is a complex game. So complex that there has never been a good comprehensive treatment in a book form; I had thought that this was because it involves more "table feel", experience and intuition that can't be easily taught or expressed in a useful format. Harrington and Robertie have done just that. Harrington is the 1995 world champion, and the only player to make the final table in both 2003 and 2004, overcoming the two biggest fields in World Series history (839 and 2,576 players, respectively). Robertie is a top backgammon player and author of several excellent books on that game.
