I agree SSHE sucks. I think I bought the last copy anyways so don't bother looking for it if you haven't read it yet.

Play Poker Like the Pros on the other hand might as well be a recipe for minting money.

To the OP- How many books have sizeable and groundbreaking discussions on improving blind play? I can't think of one... Ed Miller et al did more to impove your play from every position, including the blinds, than any other book yet published. The point of SSHE is that there is typically so much money on the table on any given hand that building pots and maximizing your chances of winning big pots is where the money is. Do you really think an extensive examination of blind defense was germain to the type of game they were teaching us how to beat? If holding your blind loss to a minimum is the difference between being a big winner or marginal loser you aren't playing in the games they are describing or are misapplying what they taught you.
