My wife, who had no idea who you were before the Queer Eye episode, is now an instant fan. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I first read Play Poker Like a Pro. Boy was that bad, but at the time it actually taught me that poker was more than about drinking beer and throwing money in a pot. Then I read SSHE and it blew my mind. It single handedly taught me more about poker than any other book.

In short, tho it's a lame "suck up" sounding post, you've done a lot of good for this community, Ed. Don't let the haters get you down.

I gave the book Hold Em Poker For Advanced Players, by Sklansky, to a guy who didn't return it while in Costa Rica. I only glanced through it as I was not into learning THAT level of poker that much. I have almost all his books. I learned FTOP by reading No Limit Hold'em, by David Sklansky and Ed Miller: Theory and Practice recently. I'm not sure if that part about on Fundamental Theorem of Poker (explained again) was written by David or Ed, but I certainly appreciate it.
It was also explained further in Harrington on Hold'em series. I intend to apply the knowledge of these books at 2006 WSOP.

I had never watched QEFTSG, even when Phil Gordon was on it last year (I forgot to record it while at work), but it is a great show. Those guys are funny. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
