How to Dominate $1 and $2 No Limit Hold'em

Mr. O'Connor:

I am glad to see that you are posting on our forums. If you take the time to review some of the posts here, you will see that the forum is full of cynicism and honesty. Hope you have tough skin. I imagine that if you are a poker player, this is true.

I do play some of the smaller NL games from time to time, as I am undecided on NL or Limit, or what game. Love them all.

I read about all of five pages of Largay's book. It seemed typical play-your-opponents cards (ei, think on level 1) advice that is pleny fine for the small stakes games. But there was one thing that turned me off. He said that in today's NL capped games, that he expects to make $50 an hour. I am sorry, this is rediculous. I am probably one of say four winning players that I have played at this level and I was doing a smashing $15 an hour. But this is california, and I will suppose that Largay was talking about Vegas games.

Questions:

Do you proclaim a wr in this book? What do you say it is?

When was the last time you have played in these games, and how much do you advocate "dominating" in these games when you you are faced with showing down 95% of all hands? And do you discuss major adjustments for these conditions? In other words, how much do you work on the level one, that seems to be the main leak in all the players I face?

I am one of the more cynical posters, btw.
