Default Need something more suitable for online play than SSHE

I did a quick search, and it appears that it is heresay to speak against SSHE. And I agree, of what few books I've read on poker ... it's one of the finest.

Even this fool can see that.

Nonetheless, the book is geared to crushing loose, multiway pots.

6-8 players seeing the flop?

I've NEVER seen this, and I started at .5/1 online.

3-5 players as tight?

Not a chance, at most three will see the flop. That's when you're lucky.

Now, admittedly, there are a couple of pages on small pots ... but that's about it.

What I need is a book that addreses tight, aggressive play where about 2-3 people are seeing the flop. Something that covers blind stealing, defence, small pots, and any other relevant topics for todays online environment.

HEPFAP ... maybe?

Some of the most relevant info I've come across recently actually came from some articles by Abdul. In particular ... open raising any playable hand in tight games when doing so might get you the blinds.

Something so simple and obvious, but missing in SSHE.

Thanks guys,
Zim

(I'm currently playing 2/4 on the pokkerroom network.)

(ps Never played Party ... are the games looser there?)
