I've been playing for about 1 year now. Up until the past 3 months, I've almost exclusively played NL tournaments (mostly SNGSs), except the ocassional dabble in limit.

Based upon that amazing amount of experience, you probably do already know everything and shouldn't expect to learn much from a book.

I am going to start calling this Sklansky's Razor. If a relatively new player reads TOP and doesn't get it, does it mean the book isn't very helpful and the relatively new player could learn more on his own or is the relatively new player clueless?

My guess is that they are spending TOO much time reading and not enough time on the poker tables learning for themselves and practicing themselves.
