I'm on my 2nd reading of Essays 3 which I bought 3 weeks ago.
In it the author states "...experts who not only play tight, but have learned to play their hands well all the way through."
This simple sentence was an awakening. Finally after 2 years of study I actually "got it". Tight-aggressive means to play the 1st 2 cards appropriately tight for the situation. That's the tight part. Study the rest of the game like crazy. That's the aggressive part.
Every essay, except for those on card rooms, contains a nugget or two. It could be that this book is just the right book at the right time for me but I think it's more than that. This is a must read.
