Professional NLE book
Just curious. Ed Miller's SSH is a good book. Not sure how much it was between him and DS in it. 50/50, etc. Good book on limit though no doubt.
Curious though. Does playing NL to gain research qualify one to co-author a book on it called "Professional NLH"? Seems like a marketing stretch. It's allowed of course. But cheezy. |

Re: Professional NLE book
Ed Miller basically wrote the small stake limit book by himself. It was reviewed and edited by David Sklansky and Mason Malmuth. Ed told me he could have been listed as an author by himself. But, he chose to have David and Mason listed because everybody involved thought it would help sales.
The no-limit theory book was almost entirely David's ideas. Ed's primary role was as a scribe (that's his descripion to me). Ed took David's theories and put them into book form. The new book is by Ed, Sunny Mehta, and Matt Flynn. Again, the ideas are coming primarily from Mehta and Flynn. Ed's key position is to ensure the book is well written. |

In other words Ed gets all the royalties for Small Stakes but gets no royalties for NLTP.

Re: Professional NLE book
How is it cheesy? He's the editing author. I learned a lot about writing poker books from Ed.
Just because I can play and have some original thoughts on no-limit doesn't mean I can go out and write a good book off the cuff. Sunny would say the same. We had a steep learning curve, and Ed hauled us up. |

Re: Professional NLE book
so obvious who "wrote" SSHE (ed) and NLTP (david) just from the styles of writing (and i suppose there is at least one or two parts to SSHE where david references ed's thoughts on certain subjects).... looking forward to PNL
