I found Championship No-limit & Pot-limit Hold'em by T.J Cloutier to be marginally useful at best, a waste of money though worth reading if you could borrow the book and played in larger tournaments. The focus of the book is aimed at the earliest parts of large scale tournaments and can be sumemrized as play tighter than anyone you ever saw and then throw away half of those hands. Could be good advice on the first days of a ten day event <shrug>. However, I got the distinct impression that Cloutier left out critical things about his game much like the old lady leaving out a few key steps for making her mom's secret chocolate pie. For sure you will not have a clue how to win the large events since the ultra tight strategy described by Cloutier will fail once you are playing the better players and the blinds are significant.

This book is not useful for ring games or SNG events. Get something else.
