Error in HEPFAP
I was wondering if anyone elses book has this same misprint. On page 97 (raising) It says:
"You also can raise as a semi-bluff. For example, suppose you have Ah 4c and the flop is Jd8s3c and everyone checks. If the next card is the 5c giving you the and gut-shot straight draw, you should usually raise if someone bets." Im assuming the Ah should be a Ac. Anyone elses like this? |

Re: Error in HEPFAP
I don't think that's a misprint (unless you mis-printed the quote, which is possible considering your post says "giving you the and gut-shot"). "Gut-shot" refers to any 4-out straight draw (i.e., not just your typical "inside" straight draw, but also A234 and AKQJ, which only make a straight one way).
In your example, yes, having Ac4c would be a better semi-bluff (now having the gutshot and the flush draw), but you can still semi-bluff raise with only the gutshot. |

Re: Error in HEPFAP
I'm sure that this example was intended to be having the A [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] on a board of J [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] . Their commentary was meant to say that you now have the nut flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. They would not advocate a marginal play like semibluffing just a gutshot and an overcard on the turn... while it may be correct in some situations... it would not be an example in the book (notwithstanding the T9 example).

Re: Error in my original post!
I've got the 21st Century Edition, and it shows the A [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] , which is clearly wrong. Do they have an errata for the books anywhere?
