SSHE is the nuts!
After reading SSHE not once, not twice, but thrice, I decided to return to the felt and apply what I learned. Played some 3/6 at the Borg and owned it for 50 BBs. Parlayed that into more profits at the 10/20 game (another 26BBs). I realize that I still have some leaks in my game, but SSHE has definitely helped to improve it. I think the sections that helped most are "Protecting Your Hand" and all of the River Play chapter. Thanks guys for the great book! Look forward to reading it again, and again, and again....

Re: SSHE is the nuts!
I read this book three times and play exactly like it says to but in online games but i cant seem to win. i think online small stakes players are so much more advanced then you would find in small stakes games in the casinos. people that play online live and breath poker trust me there addicts and there very wise but in the brick and morter casinos your going to run into alot more tourist who are just playing for fun and who you can bust.

[/ QUOTE ] Thats funny, for every person who says this I can introduce them to 10 people who have played as advised by Ed Miller in SSHE and profited. Instead of blaming the book, start by looking at how you comprehend the information. I built a significant roll by playing as Ed advised in loose and passive games, or in tougher games where I have the opportunity to limp in. Post flop play is PERFECT for the low limit on-line games as well as games all the way up until the middle limits (adjustments need to be made for short handed play), and thats where your money is made. Pre flop play does need adjusting unless the table is passive, then follow Ed's advice perfectly. |

Start with the internal, because I and thousands of others who raped the online low limit games and also do well when playing live low limit to high limit games would disagree. Limit poker is poker, its the same - you haven't learned how to properly adjust to table conditions yet, keep reading and eventually it will settle in. Also spend a LOT of time in the micro and small stakes strategy forums here on 2+2, its a goldmine of information. |

I'm at a stage in my play now where I don't mind playing at very tough tables with everyone who plays at a good to expert level, someday you will get there too but not until you can beat the low limit games with your eyes closed. Take my advice above and you can get there too! |

[/ QUOTE ] I assume what he is saying is that online low limit no longer plays "loose/passive" and I agree 100% (in general). Ed's book addresses specific game conditions, and while those game conditions often exist in live games, they rarely exist in online games any more (in Ed's world, 5 players to the flop is "tight"). |
