The reason you will move up a level from where you are is because after reading my book you will manage yourself better preparing to play poker, and at the table. I consider other books on poker to be more like blackjack books, teaching you a basic strategy. You will not be able to compete at high levels of poker, no matter how well you learn how to play your cards. You will only excel at poker when you learn how to play the other players and how to manage yourself.

I guess I thought that the sections that covered such material should be fairly obvious to a winning player at the mid-limits and above.

Maybe one of the readers that gave this aspect of the book high marks can weigh in here with a specific example that AOTR opened their eyes to.

p.s. Once again, I did enjoy the book.. I just don't understand why this aspect is being so heavily hyped.
