The strategy in the book is planning your hands around commitment. Volume 2 is going to be planning your hands around thievery. The latter is more successful in my game, because there aren't many players committing to pots with weak hands.

Your statement is still nonsensical. The book doesn't say to commit, or that your opponents will be committing with weak hands, so you can't say the "strategy" is not optimal. "Planning your hands around commitment" does not mean you commit or that your opponents to commit. In fact, plenty of time is spent discussing bet sizing to avoid commitment. Have you read the book?
