Mr. Toad\'s Wild Ride
 
Hello again everyone,

I was asked to cross-reference the future PNL1 study group in the SSNL and MSNL forums. The prologue to that is happening in SSNL in this thread:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...1195&page=

Highlights include classic 2+2 moments in which people who haven't read the book earnestly criticize claims that aren't in the book. But there's meat too.


Also over in Books/Pubs this thread has reviews and some commentary:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showth...=0#Post11329671


For those interested, Amazon currently has the cheapest price at $19.77 and should have the books in stock any day now. Yesterday PNL1 passed Tucker Max's book and today the one about getting happy endings from fat women in massage parlors. I admit it, I was intrigued. Here's the PNL1 Amazon main page:

http://www.amazon.com/Professional-No-Li...4018&sr=8-1


We wrote PNL for aspiring pros like many of you. The study group will be held here, in the dungeon, in a couple weeks. Then we take over the pokerverse, establish world domination, etc., you get the idea.

Hope to see you there.

thanks -

matt

I'm still reading the book, but I'll say this: This book is about planning your hands based on the stacks at the table and the money in the pot in order to keep you out of tough post flop decisions like being WA/WB or reverse implied odds situations. It shows you when you can commit and keeps you out of have to making a tough decision about committment. This is very key to success in NL cash games. If the second volume of this series is just as good as this then we'll probably have the most groundbreaking/eyeopening literature ever to be written about NLHE. Great job guys and looking forward to the study group and how to adapt these concepts to microstakes opponents who tend to be loose, passive, straight forward, and against who their tends to be very little fold equity against.

The book about happy endings from fat women in massage parlors took back the lead. At least we're getting beat by sex.

Thanks shyturtle for the review.
