I searched every bookstore North of the Missouri River here in North KC and was finally able to find 1 copy somewhere. Every place in town either had it or order, or only got 1 or 2 copies that were already sold. All I know is I finally got it and for that I'm thankful..

Drat! No offense, Ed, but I was hoping it wouldn't be too popular. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Diet books are popular too, and buying one doesn't make you thin.

I heard that buying ten or fifteen copies of the SAME diet book does indeed make you thin. At least that's what I heard...

Has 2+2 or anyone else ever done any research into the buyer's reading and application of books about poker? I don't have any specific data I can refer to, but I remember seeing reports that the vast majority of self-help books that are sold are never read cover to cover.

I would guess that many people who buy books like SSH start to read it, and the book ends up gathering dust on the night stand, with a book mark 30 or 40 pages in. Even someone who reads the whole thing is not going to get a lot out of it without going back and rereading and studying in between playing sessions. How many people are actually going to do that?

Condoms can prevent pregnancy, but you have to wear them.

Congrats, Ed. This success is well-deserved. Now I just hope most of the people who buy the book don't read it, or don't play against me. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I hope everybody reads it and immediately begins mis-applying it.

I just ordered it and my order has been sent. Even though it said 1-3 weeks.
