Default Recommended Books Section

I just saw the Recommened Books Section of this website.

Why would Lee Jones' WLLHE, and Lou Krieger's Hold'em Excellence be in the recommended secion?

Lee Jones book is got a negative review in Gambling Theory.

Lou Krieger's book is weak. It is totally vague and doesn't teach any useful strategies.
His colored "Start Chart" is ridiculous. Playing some of those hands are going to cost money.
He recommends playing A7 in late position, and thats just going to cost you lots of chips.

Hi Batman:

I just requested that the word "Recommended" be dropped from this list. My review of the new edition of Lee Jones is better than the original edition. But I do agree with you on Krieger.

best wishes,
Mason
