Those Extra 100 Pages In My Tournament Book
 

About half of them cover material already covered in NLTP or in posts and articles I've written here about short stacks not being able to wait for ideal situations and the like.

Just fair warning for those who want to be thirty dollar wise and two hunderd thousand dollar foolish.

David,

a few months ago, you were talking about writing one of four possible Books

Have you had any further thoughts on this?

Not yet

Re: Those Extra 100 Pages In My Tournament Book
 

$30 for 50 pages of new material does seem a bit pricey.

But you're saying it's definitely worth it. Of course, you're the author so we can't really take your word for it. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I think I'll wait for reviews but likely pass on it mostly because I don't play a lot of tournaments. But I'm curious to see how well others like it and I might add it to my collection at some point. (FWIW I have TPAP and just about everything else you've written in the poker department)

So you are saying that if I spend $30, I will put myself in position to win $200,000? Count me in! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Can I get that in writing? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

By the way, it is spelled hundred and not hunderd. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I looked at the link and I was going to say What Poker Teaches Us, but that seems to be a saturated topic right now so I am going to say the 50 Hands book due to the shortcomings of the other books of that type.

Or perhaps you can do an expanded version of TOP with the update including the study guide to TOP.

I've been reading the old edition lately and it's much more relevant than I thought at the time. I guess I needed experience to appreciate it. Recommended. Well done, Sklanners!

Same thing happened to me second time I read it. Very worthwhile read imo.

Re: Those Extra 100 Pages In My Tournament Book
 

David,

Thank you for the warning. However, I have learn so much from your books that I will buy any and all poker books you write.

I look forward to buying and reading the new book (even thought I own 2 copies of the earlier edition).

Re: Those Extra 100 Pages In My Tournament Book
 

Amulet ran out of toilet paper. I mean, wow, really, you have a compliment for a book?

I love DS\'s books
 

I love most of david's books. I think The Theory of Poker is the most important poker book ever written. I reread it every year.

I also loved;
Hold'em Poker for Advanced Players
Seven Card Stud for Advanced Player
Sklansky on Poker
Getting the Best of It
Poker, Gaming, & Life
and liked:
No Limit Hold 'em theory & Practice
Tournament Poker for Advanced Players

Somehow I own 2 copies of many of David's books.

He is a great poker writer.

I look forward to the new edition of Tournament Poker for Advanced Players
