I don't know about Spanish, but they have been translated to Portugeses.

Hi Mason.

Thanks for the reply.

I know that the Theory of Poker is the only book translated to spanish from 2+2 (as do all of the poker players in Latin America and Spain since we only have 2 poker books in spanish). My question was more about what's going on right now with the translation to spanish of the other amazings books of 2+2 like HOH or SSH. I'm a member of a spanish poker website and some of our users made me this question. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of people that speaks both spanish and english so a lot of them are looking forward to these books.

Thank you.

Best wishes.

Hi patchdiaz:

We do have a publisher for the rest of our books in Spanish. It is a different organization from the publisher that did The Theory of Poker. But I do not know what the status is with our books at this moment.

Best wishes,
Mason

Two books? Wow. We need more Spanish poker books. Now! I sense a new phase of poker boom coming. Where is Phil Hellmuth when we need him?

Thank you Mason.

I'll wait for them then, if you have any updates I would appreciate if you post them here so I can publish them on our website. That way we can create a little more expectation in the spanish poker community [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

How about sending a few mails around to different publishers and even authors? They might be interested that there only are two spanish poker books. Some of them may not know.

And here may be some people willing to translate their strategy articles to your site (pokerpoquer.com) - or give them to be translated. Maybe you could even find regular columnists. Good strategy articles would generate more interest and action, in the long run.

Hi Starfish.

Thank you for the suggestions. I need to say first that the website isn't mine, I'm just a collaborator.

I know for a fact that there aren't many publishers interested in poker books, don't ask me why. It seems that the poker community isn't interested in them... if you ask me is the opposite.

We have translated some good articles and we do it regularly, thank you anyway for the help [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Best wishes.
