Trouble is, it does try to tell you what to do .... that is where it falls apart (and besides some of the theory is dead wrong, like claiming that blindstealing (or actually just stealing) is not a reason to raise from the BTN)

I wish I had the book with me at the moment but would be shocked if it says that blind stealing in NL is never a reason to raise from the button. As I recall Sklansky mentions that in most cases is is not a reason to raise and explains some situations in which one might want to raise to steal blinds(which is true in a full ring game).

Correct me if I'm wrong plz. The book is at home and I haven't read it in a few months.
