Sit 'N Go Strategy Preview also?

[IcemanDan]

I recently saw the table of contents posted for Professional No Limit Hold Em Volume I, so it's worth a shot:

Any chance we can get to see the table of contents for Sit 'N Go Strategy?

(It could help build some enthusiasm for the book anyway, as Moshman seems to be getting torn up in the STTF forum.)

Edit - Well I miss read that. Sorry I think that first link is probably the best your going to get. But hey there is an excerpt at what I linked.

[Collin Moshman]

Hi Guys,

Please note that the above link is not an official 2+2 table of contents -- it's just some topics from the book I posted on my site in response to content queries I've been getting.

The release of an official SNG Strategy table of contents before the book release is entirely 2+2's decision, and it may look very different from the rough topic list posted above.

Best Regards,
Collin

Yes. We expect to be shipping books out of our office on that day. Then it usually takes a week or so for the books to begin to appear in places like Borders, Barnes & Noble, Amazon, etc. We'll try to get some books to the local Las Vegas gambling stores as soon as we can.

Best wishes,
Mason

Thanks Mason! Looks very promising.
I know many posters in the STT community is somewhat skeptic to this manuscript. I personally can't wait to dig into it.

Mason,
how long for it to reach Amazon UK? I have it pre-ordered through them.

It looks like the sort of book i was hoping for!. It should help me with a lot of areas i have questions about.

[IcemanDan]

Looks like the book will cover many interesting topics. Thanks Mason.
