Default Re: Professional No-Limit Hold \'em Volume 1 Review Thread

Sounded Simple thank you for the extended review and taking time to respond to bread!

bread, i understand your concerns and have no cure for them, there's just no way to know what your opponents will do. at least once you hit the flop you'll know what to expect, and you can nudge things in a good direction for your hands, even if all you do is fold, limp or make a fixed raise. you may like the ideas better when we flesh out other aspects in volume 2, like using SPR postflop and perhaps more important for the mid/high-stakes online crowd playing for and against commitment vs. playing for smallball. in practice SPR alone works fantastic in loose live games, but in tougher games you need to think about more than that. we're aware, we just didn't want to shoehorn the discussion into volume 1.
