Re: I just ordered Angel Largay\'s book, What parts are bad?
I ordered this book after reading posts in this forum and have gotten about 1/2 way through it. So far I like it very much. The focus on these stakes applies directly to my current situation, so it couldn't be more relevant. I liked the quizzes because it forced me to do some of the math that I otherwise have glassed over in the 2+2 books. (Rather than do the calculations, I always just taken Sklanksy's word for it.) I got a deeper insight by performing the calculations myself. I definetly have a deeper understanding of implied odds after doing the math, and have a deeper appreciation for hidden draws.
I have noticed that there are some inaccuracies with the quizzes. Angel tells you to list all draws on Quiz 2 but fails to list many of the gutshots on some questions, but notes them on others. (one of the gutshots is flipped with an OESD in the answers too) Also, on quiz 10 #3 Angel only gives you credit for 4 outs, when you actually have 10 against the A6 he has listed. Anybody else notice these?
Overall I have enjoyed it and look forward to keep reading.
