Default Re: matt maroon book???

I've watched and datamined many of Matt's hands. He's definitely a winning player with an outstanding win rate. I've learned a lot from Matt and have faith that this book is excellent. His site is excellent too.

He definitely plays a different game than your average 2+2'er. I've studied his play and adapted some of it to my game and it has greatly improved my winrate. Taking some of his advice and studying a bunch of his hands, I've managed to up my winrate from just over 1.5BB/100 to over 2BB/100.

But the author is a winner in the mid/high limit Party games (up to 30/60 I believe) and understands the game quite well, so he's capable of writing a good book.

Here are some gems from his website:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can play 30 percent of your hands and still be a winner playing full ring games.

I actually have empirical evidence that you can. And it appears that you can be just as big a winner as the 15s.

I'm buying his book anyway FWIW.
