I used it to win a Party 10+1 earlier today after reading on their forum about the success that one guy was having using it.
And it is more about adding a "long ball" club to your bag. I used it to maintain pace with the blinds untill I got the chip lead and then started pushing players off their hands with my big stack. |

i've looked in 2 bookstores and have yet to find it.
i wanted this before based on binions review. Now that Mason has given it a 10 I think it's a must-have. The posts in this thread hinting at the various concepts in the book sound pretty interesting. as someone else pointed out...it seems to practically be a 'Party SNG' strategy guide (but I'm sure it applies to more tourney stuff than just that). Really looking forward to tracking down a copy. |

Just a quick note, Mason gave it a preliminary 10 and hasn't yet finished it.
It's beginning to sound like the next must read tournament poker book, isn't it? I read a few chapters, but haven't yet hit the meat. |

My Xmas amazon wishlist was so filled with poker stuff, my fiance got confused and ordered me this book....twice! So now I've got two copies sitting here - just started reading one. Heck, I might even read them both.

Takes till about chapter 6 (IIRC) to get to the "good" stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I found it on eBay via these guys (http://www.pokergurus.com) also. Fast, friendly service so I'm happy to give them a recommendation.

It's a slow, fluffy start and most of us are past the beginner's section. But after about 75-80 pages it really starts getting instructional and I was pretty impressed with some of the tactics used by Lee and Blair. |

FWIW, I placed an order through these guys yesterday and the shipment is out via Priority mail today. So pretty fast response so far.
