Any reviews by Mason or others? I looked through this big thread and saw a few. It sounds like this is a complex book that requires multiple readings. In what areas of tourney play will it help me most?

[/ QUOTE ]

You won't see a review by Mason because he has indicated that he has not even opened it yet.

It's certainly not easy for Mason to comment on this book without hurting their own sales. 2+2 has just released a book on SnGs and a new edition of TPFAP after all. It's quite a dilemma.

What part did Joe Hachem play in the writing of this book?

If this is true, I don't think Hachem deserves a writing credit. It would be like saying that Online Ace was by Scott Fischman and Phil Hellmuth Jr. since Phil wrote a foreward.

he doesn't have a writing credit. the book clearly states that the foreword is by him, with Lee, Tysen and Kim being the primary authors.

Mark Vos didn't even make it on the cover.

The book cover may make that clear, but there are some places I have seen it listed on the web that make it seem like Hachem helped in the writing. By this I mean, the listing will say Kill Everyone by....and Hachem will be listed like an author.

The Amazon listing for the book, which is in a format that is fairly standard for web listings, says:

[ QUOTE ]
Kill Everyone: Advanced Strategies for No-limit Hold 'em Poker Tournaments and Sit-n-go's (Paperback)
by Lee Nelson (Author), Tysen Streib (Author), Kim Lee (Author), Joe Hachem (Foreword)

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think they could have made it any clearer than that.

I'd say it would stick out if Mason didn't review this, considering he gave Kill Phil 10/10.
