new tells book: "Reading Poker Tells" by Zachary Elwood

I was just browsing on Amazon and noticed a new tells book by an author named Zachary Elwood.

I normally would dismiss this title but it has positive testimonials from Kathy Liebert.

Reading Poker Tells

Anyone heard of this book or have read it? Is it any good?

haven't read it and don't care what liebert says but the fact that 2+2's own Limon said "It's hard work to find tells, so many people don't do it. This book just made it a lot more simple, condensing years of legwork into one easy read." makes me want to pick it up

Published April 1, 2012 and no kindle edition?????? It's 2012 this is a serious mistake. Reading the reviews it looks decent but it would need to be amazing for me to purchase it in traditional form.

It'll be available as an ebook soon. I just wanted to make a couple corrections to the manuscript that some people pointed out, and add a few paragraphs. It'll be a few weeks.

I'm somewhat the opposite as I like books to be in the traditional format. Thanks to the author for getting it published that way.

Thanks to the OP for creating this thread and showing me there are some interesting new, non-tournament poker books out there now.

Thats cool Doc. I just like getting all the good stuff on my Kindle. I use to drag a stack of poker books on my 2 week trip I take to vegas every year. Those are now past memories. Now I pack a few magazines and my Kindle.

I just want authors to know they are loosing sales by not having an e-book format. Fortunately this is not this case with this book.

You are welcome Doc.

This book looks interesting - I am going to check it out and post a review.

Not a lot of New Tells material out since Navarro so looking forward to it..

Does this include internet tells or is it live play only?

It's primarily for live play. The only part that would apply to online is the bet-timing section, which is not a large section.

Definitely need the kindle format. I won't buy regular books anymore. I read a book a week and don't have room in my house for more books.

kindle format or NEXT!
