Just curious if anyone's read "Professional Poker: The Essential Guide to Playing for a Living" by Mark Blade.

http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Poker...TF8&s=books

I used the search function, but didn't find any commentary on it (which probably says something in & of itself).

Thanks.

There has been a fair amount of discussion on it. Basically, the book contains solid advice throughout for anyone who want's to take the game seriously. An extremely good section is on bankroll requirements/money management. Well worth a read.

BTW, I think Mason give it 8/10

I'm nearly done with it now. So far I think it's very good.

I own it and would recommend it. I'm interested to read his supposed second book on strategy.
