Matt,

There's a pretty good chance you know all this, but nevertheless, regarding the hyphenation of no limit:

You should only hyphenate it when it when it's being used as a phrasal adjective. So, for example, "no-limit texas hold 'em", but "there is no limit to how much money I can make pwning noobs on the interweb."

I hate when people screw stuff like this up, but I'm a giant grammar nit, so what can you do.

Make no mistake. We understand grammar. But consider:

A floorman says, "There is no limit here." Does that mean there aren't any limit games? Or that a "no limit" game is going?

Language evolves. We're making deliberate choices to push it along. We will also write "checkraise" and "all in" (for all forms).

I wish books like this wern't made.

But good work. I'll probably read it. Thx.

Truth be told, after reading a draft for one of the big Core sections, my no-limit mentor refused to help other than spotting clear errors because he does not want some of the ideas published.

who's your mentor?

also, these are ideas you don't think current 2+2ers play with? or just ssnl players?

How can I say yes without getting flamed?

I think the vast majority of 2+2 no-limit players stand to improve their game using these ideas.

Curious, do you have winning small stakes online players proofreading your book/giving their views on some of the ideas in there for online play at certain levels?

Sorry Matt, but the people have spoken. We don't want you, we want True. A+ for effort though.
