Books on Chinese poker?

The "Other Poker" forum links to the Smolen book. I can't find any others.

Is the Smolen book good? Is there anything else out there?

That's not true, even though it feels like it sometimes.

The Smolen book and software is all you'll need for straight Chinese Poker. There are all kinds of variants of the game (e.g. 2-7 hand in the middle, different types of bonuses), but highly doubtful much more will be written any time soon.
