Default Re: Small Stakes Holdem is online micro-limit book

My point is that advice SSHE gives is suitable for games which are loose and passive both pre-flop and post-flop.

Let's say you have i.e. mix of 5 LPPs, 2 TAGs and 2 sLAPs and no maniacs, VPIP% is 40 % or over, PFR is under 5 % and post-flop aggression very low. I very rarely find such fish ponds in Party 2/4 $ level.

I think SSHE does not tell clearly enough what kind of games it is written for. SSHE also gives impression that 2/4 $ and 3/6 $ online games are best playground for SSHE. That could have been case when the book was written, but not anymore. I think it is very common misunderstanding that SSHE would be best book to learn 2/4 $ or 3/6 $ limit.

On the other Holdem for Advanced Players and Middle Limit Holdem Poker talk about Middle Stakes Poker. When they mostly speak about games were most of players have some idea of poker.
