Default Re: Why Great Players Often Like My Stuff More Than Good Players

[ QUOTE ]
In any case my original post was not about the fact that some great players are big fans but rather about the fact that some merely good players aren't. They like Harrington and Miller better because their writings tend to give concrete advice about what to do in the generic case that often applies well, whereas I tend to show you how to figure it out yourself once you make the read.

This is not surprising as most people would rather be given instructions than figure things out themselves.

That is in no way a criticism of the Harrington and Miller books (I think they are fine books), just a statement on the nature of our North American society.
