ok

i have not read the book...but don't stop reading. i can tell you this, if you win more money than you lose at poker, then don't worry about it. if you think the player is above average, have the confidence to trust your own analysis and stop looking for others to justify that analysis with confirmation. For every legitimate "good" card player on this board, there are 50 who have read theory of poker and supersystem once, in two sittings, and think they have the game clocked. there are also a bunch of people who reduce poker to math equations that would make a rocket scientist confused (and we are supposed to believe they commit this to memory or do the math at the table). the truth is, most of them are full of crap. you obviously liked the book, and thought the player worthy, and, you win money at poker, which means, you understand the game better than most, so be confident in that opinion. finally, realize most of the world never succeeds at anything they do beyond marginal, insignificant levels, and even more fail at the lowest levels. if the majority of the people out there don't agree with you, thats probably a sign you are thinking clearly and on to something.
