Re: PNL vrs. NLHTAP
A litmus test I use for a poker book is whether it teaches me how to play poker in a real game. For an example with a book you're probably already familiar with, SSH teaches you how to play poker, NLHTAP does not. That does not mean NLHTAP won't be helpful to you, it just helps explain the difference.

PS - reading a book and understanding the hidden concepts are not necessarily related. It takes quite a while for some of the underpinnings of the Harington books to sink in. |

PNL. PS - reading a book and understanding the hidden concepts are not necessarily related. It takes quite a while for some of the underpinnings of the Harington books to sink in. [/ QUOTE ] QFT I just started to re-read NLHTAP and was surprised at how little of what I was (re) reading I had actually applied to my game. There were laso concepts I thought I understood but from going over them I realized that I did not. I was so off that I stopped and am currently rereading TOP before I attempt NLHTAP again. Note: To apply to your situation, I've read HOH 3 times each and every time my tournament game gets better and better. Re-reading also helps you to think about your own ideas and concepts to apply in conjunction with Harrington's advice, or in some cases contrary to it. |

Re: PNL vrs. NLHTAP
Ed Miller has stated that writing PNL made him understand NLHE. So there.
