Default Re: PokerNews Article Regarding Poker Books -- And 2+2

Hi Barron:

There are a number of things inaccurate in the article. For instance we don't have 43 poker books. Our total family of books is now 30 titles, and a bunch of those are not poker.

Also, their estimate of poker books to be released this year of 60, which came from a USA Today article, in my opinion is way low. My guess would be about triple that.

One other thing I want to comment on. I need to commend Anthony Curtis of Huntington Press for stating that we are the leader in this field. Normally when other publishers or writers are interviewed on this subject they won't even mention that we exist. Also, I know Blair Rodman who is one of the author's on Huntington's upcoming book Kill Phil. He's a very smart person and has done well in the tourneys, so without having seen Kill Phil I suspect it will be pretty good.

Best wishes,
Mason
