Both.

I read them in the order they came out. I can't wait for Volume 2 of PNLHE.

Some of the concepts in NLHETAP, however, are difficult to understand and apply. They are also open for debate on their effectiveness. Some of the concepts are often attacked as bad advice in the strat forums. For example, if you post some hand commentary in the strat forums with ideas like "check the flop," "open limp," "min-raise here to prime the pot," and "raise more with your aces preflop in this hand" and you'll get some pretty interesting and unflattering responses. Granted, everything in poker is situation dependent, and NLHETAP is clear that not all tactics are for all situations, but some of the tactics really are quite controversial.

FWIW, I use most of the NLHETAP concepts, including all of the controversial ones, in my live game, and I have improved considerably as a result.
