Default Re: Winning in Tough Hold \'em Games

"One could also make the arguement that learning the skills to beat tough games might increase your winrate in easier games."

they could make that argument but it would be wrong. easy games require a significantly different skill set.

but that's not to say i dont think the book has a lot of merit, at least in theory.

I disagree, but will not debate it in this thread. understanding at poker at a very high level, including adjusting to your opponents, implied odds, judging when why and how to bluff, and situational hand values are skills needed for beating tough games.

They are also skills that will help beat easier games or help you beat them more.
