Default Re: If you could have your wish

Tournaments-Howard Lederer. He would be a top choice for cash games as well. If he wrote a book as solid as his DVD collection, he would really be providing some good information. John Juanda, similar to A. Cunningham, seems like a good choice because he seems very thoughtful in his moves and he consistently finishes in the money and makes a lot of final table appearances. His articles for AllIN magazine are pretty basic and weak. I think an entire book would add little to what is already available.

Cash games- Chip Reese-assuming he would really give some solid information. There is no doubt he could give a real education if he wanted...but then, if he did, everyone would know the same stuff and what would it really be worth after that anyway. If anyone would have given some good cash game information, you would think Greenstein would given his financial security. He could tell all the secrets and it would never have an affect on him at his level.

The tournament information is pretty good from books, but the cash game information is a little more guarded it seems. Tournaments are part skill and part luck. It doesn't really matter to give someone all the information they need to enter a tournament. It seems like the cash game information would be harmful to the professionals, so you see less solid information. Lederer is a really great high stakes poker player and he stated he learned a lot about playing high stakes poker from playing against Reese for years, so I would have to say Reese would be the best to write one.
