But the TRUE benefit of this strategy is that he's more or less DARING you to be bolder than that even! He's saying, call that 2x raise on the button with J6o. If he checks, bet. Robusto. If he bets weakly, raise!! Robusto!!

Wasn't that already in everyone's playbook?

All the authors tell you your cards don't matter and you have to pick your spots, but they never really tell you how to pick those spots. Snyder does.

Hasn't the answer always been "When you read them for weakness" or when M-logic (to put it in Harrington terminology) dictates that you semi-bluff weaker hands?
I think my issue with this book, if I have one, is that I'm not the intended audience. Most of the material it's presenting is stuff I've known for a long time, or stuff that's been supplanted by more advanced plays in my tournament game. The book might be wonderful for someone seeing the material for the first time.
