Default Re: Kill everyone - Amazon says Sept 30th

I too had the book waiting on me when I got home. I've got about a third of the way through it and will post a review once done.

For now though, a shout out to Mike at professionalpoker.com. I'm on the east coast, ordered my copy mid-afternoon Wednesday and it arrived at my home 9am Thursday. Great service, Mike, thanks.

My copy was waiting in my mail box when I got home yesterday afternoon. Next mission is to read and more important understand and apply some new concepts.

And maybe post a review?? Please?

The book is 350 pages and I have both a company to run and a family I like to spend time with. Yes I'll post a review but jeez give me a few days to read, re-read and mull over the information before I make comments which once posted cannot be taken back or revised.

I skimmed through it and the material looks awesome.

However, I had a hard time interpreting the Unexploitable Resteal chart on pg. 72.

I'm assuming the left-most column is the opener's range, but what are the other two columns to the right?

I could be misreading it, but the chart seems to be off (unaligned?).

I don't have my hard copies yet, so I'm not sure how it looks, but you should read the opener's range along the top, not the first column. Read the effective stack size along the left and find opener's range on the top. Where they intersect is your unexploitable re-steal range. For example, with a CSI of 10, if opener's range is 77+,AQ+,ATs,KTs+,QTs+,JTs, you can unexploitably re-steal with 99+,AQ+,AJs+,KQs. Hope it makes sense now.

That's a fair assessment.

Default Available now at Amazon

Amazon's listing says "4-6 weeks" but that's wrong. They have it in stock and are shipping immediately. They should be updating their listing soon.

Also, there's a delivery on its way to PokerStars who will be carrying it in their store.

Any idea when it might be available in the UK? Amazon.co.uk have is listed for Jan 2008. Seems like a long wait for them to get any.

I would guess the next couple of weeks at the latest for Amazon uk.

Check the Highstakes website. They are a poker shop in London. They sent me an email today saying they would have copies available from the end of this week. They often have US new releases a week or two before Amazon uk.

Alternatively you could try Mike from Professional Poker, he seems to get books to people fairly quickly.

Thanks for the pointer but £28 is a bit steep. I'll wait and see how much amazon.co.uk list it for. Has anyone finished reading it yet? Im interested what people think of it
