I finally got my mitts on Gus Hansen's book, Every Hand Revealed. Orders (and pre-orders) on Amazon already put it in their top 200.
The book is a chance to get inside his mind as he chronicles 329 hands on his way to winning the 2007 Aussie Millions. Only hands folded pre-flop are omitted.
I just read the first 25 pages (at lunch) and found it hard to put down. The style is an easy read and it seems he gives you just enough detail about the situation. Blinds, position and players are detailed for each hand and he gives you his reasoning for his actions. He also highlights some hands as being key for the tournament.
He started with a very strong first table and lost the first 10 hands he played, cutting his stack in half. He talks about reads, taking stabs, adjusting his play, etc.
I think it looks like a very solid entry and can't wait to see hands near the bubble and into the final table. It could easily be the start of a new trend - I think lots of the popular pros could repeat the format and provide fresh perspective on their play.
You can find it and other poker books Here.
