All you guys who got this for free it's a pretty sweet opportunity to improve your game. Damn I shouldn't have been so inactive the past few months

oh yeah this reminds me, i read some of slowhabit's PLO book a few months back and i was supposed to write a review for him here and never did bc i am a lazy poker player. i suck, sry about that Tri from what i did read though (about the first half) it seems really good and you def should buy it if youre trying to transition from nl to plo, it'll save you a ton of time and money by pointing you in the right direction and giving you the jist, compared to trying to go at it yourself with no help

bought it earlier, hopefully i can print it off to read it.

nice 10% off for LP also

That's probably his FTP account since that's 2.5 buy-ins at Rail Heaven.

His Stars account has much better results.

Probably not. If we did play, it's only for a few hands back in 2007. I don't play 25/50nl

90$ for an e-book by an online player

or

30$ for any of the Harrington series, SuperSystem and many others

Tell me, SlowHabit, what is it about your e-book that makes it 3x as expensive as paperback copies of books from players who are MUCH more known. I'm not flaming, I'm honestly asking. Regardless of how good you are, why would a middlestakes player buy 1 e-book for the price he could get 2-3 regular books?

Idk, at a normal price I mightve snagged a copy, at 90$, unless this book is some sort of legendary new recipe to poker we've never seen anywhere else, it's mad overpriced.

harringtons books were released in 1914 and this was released today
games have changed a ton in the last 5 years never mind the last 95

That was just an example, I'm just saying the average poker book is in the 25-40$ range. Seems like at 90$, two things will happen. It won't sell as much, and within 2 weeks there'll be a copy on every torrent site out there.

the average poker book totally fails to meet the requirements of modern midstakes online play.
the average poker book is always about TAG vs 4 Fish on the table
times have changed
nowadays its U vs 3 regs and 2 semi fish

yes, all old books suck hairy balls, Harrington sucks at poker to todays standards and so does Doyle and its a good thing these books are so expensive so the fish are not educated
