Hey all,
Ive read (and re-read and re-read)

WLLHE
TOP &
Carsons Book

I was wondering what does HPFAP empasize over these books? Especially TOP and Carsons?

From what I hear, it is a must read, but does it just reiterize the info in these other books?

Thanks, and I only ask as I do not know /images/graemlins/smile.gif

HPFAP is about only Holdem, whereas TOP covers all poker in general.

HPFAP is miles ahead of WLLHE and Carson's book.

HEFAP is way beyond the other books...so much so that you should consider what limit you're playing before applying what is contained within.

And am I the only one who had issues with Carson's book? It did a good job of discussing relative hand strengths, but most of the other stuff in there seemed irrelevant or just plain wrong!

If you have read and reread both WLLHE and TOP so that you truly understand the concepts within, then I would say that you are ready for HEFAP.

I started with HPFAP and was completely lost. It really is not for the newbie. If you understand the other two though, buy HPFAP and read it.

And don't say reiterize.
