well comparing Largays book to NLHTAP which is easier to understand for an intermediate player.

I struggle to read books but Largay's is relatively easy. He says people lose to him because they like him. Liking him is what makes his book a good read.

It showed up in the mail yesterday and I am reading it now. My first impression is favorable.

It is an easy read.

Angel has follow up books in the works according to him.
Lets hope he gets his butt in gear because he must be aware how favourable this book has become.

yes i just started reading it today. just got done with the mathmatics and got to say he explains it more simpler then i ever read before. i would have to say this book is for a begginer who is graduating into an intermediate player. NLHTAP is for intermediate players graduating to avdvance level.

This book is one of the worst books ive ever read. In the hands that he describes its as if he is playing against complete idiots who always just pay him off with their whole stacks with no hand. I mean, common. pg 224 example 1 when he the flop is 458 and he holds 67 vs an opponent who he is putting on AK and is making 3 big bets and expecting to get paid off the whole way. What a waste of time for me.

He says that's a loose passive player.

I have just bought a copy of the book and have read about 1/2 of it. So far I think it is one of the easiest books to read and grasp the material, he just has a way to explain subjects easier. I am also having to switch to NL after being mostly a live Limit player and I think this book is perfect for my situation right now.
