You should _NOT_ plan primarily for commitment in "tougher" online games unless you or your opponent are shortstacking.

I agree with this.

I still find SPR useful in certain aspects of online games. Most notably is when I'm involved in pots with bad (loose) players who have bought in for 40-70BB.

Against the tighter competition, I do like the approach of planning hands around stealing. Sometimes the cost of this is playing top pair-type hands at awkward SPRs. But with some good hand-reading skills, one can easily get past this hurdle.

I'm looking forward to volume 2 nonetheless. I thought parts of volume 1 were great.
