To be fair, his advice is directed to "Rule" games, which are defined as 5 or more callers on average in an 11 handed game (in Los Angeles we generally have 9 handed games, and usually someone is in the bathroom or taking a cigarette break, on Party Poker it is 10 handed, and on Poker Stars it is 9 handed. I'm not sure where they play 11 handed, but I have seen it in Laughlin). Anyways, I still think his advice (starting hands) is a bit loose even with 5 people seeing the flop, but probably not where 6 or 7 people are seeing the flop.

He does advocate playing marginal hands to help generate more action on future hands, which I generally agree with. However, in my opinion, marginal hands should be at least break-even, or really darn close, and I think some of these hands are a little "south" of the line. A specific example, 4 cards 9 or higher is a money-loser, IMHO, and is less than marginal (except in very loose games, 5 callers doesn't qualify in my opinion).

Just my opinion,
