Suggestion for those planning to buy a 2+2 book

[Warren Whitmore]

Take the quizz at the end before you read the book. Calculate the gained EV from what you learned.
Its an extra little boost knowing that you will do better in the future than you did in the past.

The quizzes at the end are a total waste of paper and ink. The questions are often impossible to understand unless you have already read the book, and remember the specific language the "quiz" is asking about. Thankfully, they have eliminated this "feature" in recent books.

There is a reason they are at the end and not the beginning. They are good for reviewing the main points of each section. I am sad to hear they've been discontinued.

is there a 2+2 book that you didn't learn something from?

I like having quiz reviews in books, so that's too bad they're no longer included (if this is true). But perhaps 2p2 will do workbook play-of-hands type of thing because of HOH3? I'm a fan of this after going through the (non-2p2) Byron Jacobs workbook.

Good call. By far, still the reigning champion as the worst 2+2 book. I think I burned my copy I was so unhappy with it. I'd have to look to make sure, but that'd mean I'd have to actually see that piece of crap again.

Oh well, 1 out of so many other great books isn't too bad a ratio. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The quizes are nice if you are running bad. It can help you ask yourself questions and test your play. Then if you answer differently, you can go check the section it refers to.

Just a thought.

They are not bad, but I would spend that space for a lot of quality hand quizzes.
