The best reason to hate Ed Miller is his over use of the word "absurd.

Hate? Inconceivable!

Also preposterous, irrational, silly, and foolish. The OP needs either a hug or a kick in the pants. He'll probably get both. I see he finally did post in the Micro forum, so maybe we'll see what his real problem is.

I was the same after my first read through of the book. Now I'm taking a pen and a notebook and going through the book and writing down the important concepts from each page/chapter. I'm only on page 67 and already have 5 full hand written notebook pages worth of important material. There is a lot of important material in the book.

I checked in on the UB play money tables and they are better (as in the play is *correct*) than some higher real money limit games I've seen. Absolutely ridiculous I think. Anyone know why this is?

I think UB has become the inoffical home base of those players who think they'd win more money if the other players were better.

Maybe it's better late at night US time, but during European hours UB is squeaky tight.

Hey Tim-

One problem right now is that dozens of 2+2'ers are clearing the $1-$3000 bonus dollars we got for the July Sit N Go bonus promotion. I should be done in about 400 more table hours at $1-$2.

If the assumptions are not true why are you applying the concepts?

Same here. I read SSH through twice, then took notes on the third reading. People who think that Miller is spawning a bunch of LAGs are not applying his book correctly, especially in smaller pots. SSH is subtler than many think, and also not as incredibly radical as many think. Just because he isn't telling people to look for reasons to fold every other page (like Jones), doesn't mean he's a LAG.

I don't think it's Ed's fault. Rather, bringing more aggression of any type into one's game has an adjustment period of sorts.
