Default Re: SNG Book Announcement:

[ QUOTE ]
I would think Mason could care less what Collin’s Sharkscope stats are. I’m assuming Mason would judge the book by its content.

There’s no questioning the possibility that there is a poster on the STTF that has better stats than Collin…that doesn’t mean the STTF poster can write a book that we would all fully comprehend, or that would even help us. Being a great SnG player, and being a great author are two separate things.

[/ QUOTE ]But the question is whether Mr. Moshman understnads SnG's well enough to write about them. Based on his sporadic posts in STTF, the book probably won't be McEvoy/Cloutier level garbage, but whether it will rise above "competent" to "helpful" or even "indispensable" is an open question. And, with respect, it's possible that Mason/David/etc. don't have a thorough enough understanding of SNG's to accurately judge how "good" the manuscript is. As someone said upthread, it's an esoteric form of poker.
