i think snyder has the call any two from the button due to the post-flop position (so post-flop play) not due to the variance necessarily.

but from reading the book, i don't think he recommends you play these systems exactly ... he has a position system, a card system and a stack size system... one thing i was never completely sure about was how you were supposed to integrate these systems. i remember "look at what weapons you have", but i didn't think that was clear enough.

Yeah, that was less than helpful.

i wish people would stop citing that one strategic tip. he's assuming deep stacks near the start. and this isn't a book like kill phil is perceived to be. it's not a system. i think he assumes (or you should) that you have played some poker already. if you haven't, i would take out some of the position plays.

I think it IS intended to be a system, both based on the book title and on Snyder's blackjack background and outlook on the game. I could be wrong, though. Maybe Snyder will answer if he was trying to provide general strategic ideas or a specified system.

say what you want, but PTF woke me up to aggressive small-ball play as much as any other book...

That's good, I guess.
