Default Re: Is SSH the best book for the micros???

I think Ed wrote book while playing live small stakes games. These are much looser than the average online game you will find today. His advice is still top notch. Luckily, when he suggests plays that you should only make when 7 players see the flop, he mentiones that you should only do it if 7 players see the flop.

I read several posts from people here who said that after reading SSH their results worsened. The improtant thing to understand is why you make the play that you do and not doing it like a robot. Concentrate on the concepts and adjust for your table's playing style

HEPFAP was written towards thinking players who play against thinking players. A lot of the advice there does not fit for the micro limits because most micro players don't think about your cards, they only care about their cards. Misusing some of the fancy plays there is not recommended at the micros.
