Doubts about \"Mastering No Limit Hold\'em\"
I picked this up with some anticipation but am now developing doubts.
From Chapter One alone, here are things that clearly seem to be mistakes:

No-limit race odds - charts or tables?
OK, I've ordered the 2nd Lederer DVD, which supposedly has a handy table of head-up race odds in it (although I've seen at least one archived post that asserts the chart has mistakes in it).
But...

Re: PF CC Survey

FWIW - In some of these situations I might almost prefer JTs or Axs over JJ (or maybe even QQ).

Why would you ever prefer a suited drawing hand over a big pair? Even if...

Re: SSHE Pot Equity questions (long)
Your hard work is admirable but I fear misguided. Although pot equity is a useful concept, it's not the only input and may not even be the most important one in some circumstances. Thus, working up...

Re: SSH - +EV or -EV?
By "decent" hands you seem to mean big offsuit cards.
This is an interesting point. At the microlimits (though I no longer play them) I used to think it was better to limp AQ after many limpers -...

Re: OK, but what\'s \"marginal\"?
I'm a big fan of Roy Cooke, but these quotes here are far too vague to be of much help. There is no way of judging whethere he's right or wrong without some specific hand examples.

Re: Best way to read SSH
You need to think of your own reading plan. If you can't do that you're in over your head.
If you slow down and think about it, there's probably lots of ways you can make it easier to absorb the...

Re: Revised calculations for a three-way pot
Look, you've got to get a grip here. Go back and look at how I did the calculations. You'll see that the 47-card deck I'm talking about contains the three Aces in question.

Revised calculations for a three-way pot
Since a three-way pot (you with KK versus two opponents) was stipulated in the example, that's what seems most relevant here. So what's the true probability that if you hold KK, see the flop with two...
