Re: Why Great Players Often Like My Stuff More Than Good Players
[ QUOTE ]
I honestly can't think of a single really impressive poker player who is a strong enthusiast of 2+2 books. [/ QUOTE ] When Howard Lederer was teaching Annie Duke to play poker, the first thing he did was send several of Sklansky's books to her.

HEFAP, TOP, 7CSFAP, HiLo FAP, TPFAP, etc. existed in the 80s, early 90s. Not too shabby a library to get started with.

At the time, Sklansky's books dominated the marketplace. These days (or a few years ago when Sebok was getting started), there are many more to choose from, including many more from 2p2. If you're looking for books to help you TODAY, then Barry's choices are much more relevant than Howard's in this context.
