Default Re: \"The Theory of Poker\" observation/question answered

Razz is chosen for many of the examples because it is much easier to read hands in that game, so it is easier to show the correct play if you know the opponent's hand. you will notice that in many of Sklansky's hold 'em examples, the opponent's hand is exposed, in order to show the correct play if you know the opponent's hole cards, consistent with the fundamental theorem.

i would like to see a few more hand reading exercies added to HEPFAP for this reason, but i see no reason to update TOP.
