Re: Any updates on Tommy Angelo\'s book?

What can one say to that? A lot, but it would be hard to be polite.
If you understand the thought process behind what he's saying, it will help you become a better player (person?). If you don't, then stick to online. Your life will be easier.

I respect Tommy's work, I've read his website before and I'm looking forward to buying the book. I'm looking forward to reading his more general conceptual stuff as well. I'm just saying I do not think that particular chapter provided a lot of useful insight to someone like me who plays 99% online. I wish he published one of the chapters TT mentioned ("Quitting, Anticipation, Fears, Moving Up, Entitlement and Self-Perpetuating Tiltlessness") which all sound very applicable and interesting.
re: TT: Barry's book is one of my favorites as well even with a lot of stuff that isn't directly applicable to a player like me (i.e. describing a lot of casino-centered stuff like a paragraph on what a floor man does).
