Poker is like sex, you can't learn it from books alone.

This is one of the worst analogies I've ever read.
If given the choice, I'd take just about any 2+2 book, SS2, some of Ciaffone's stuff, etc., over Ace on the River. But I do own AoTR and don't regret the purchase.
But then again, I guess I just named off books that were written by player/winners which I assume weren't the books he was talking about.

Ace on the river tells you more about living the poker life as a gambler rather than real strategy.
