Default Harrington on Hold \'em -- A Success

Hi Everyone:

I thought I would share with you part of an email we received from our book buyer at Borders:


[ QUOTE ]
Good news: Harrington on Hold Em was the # 1 poker book at Borders, last week. Early sales are fantastic.

[/ QUOTE ]

So it looks like this book is going to be a big success. This also may explain why some of you can't find it when you have gone to Borders, but we have already shipped them another large order.

Thanks to everyone for all the support.

Best wishes,

Mason

It's selling too well. I believe a week ago on Amazon it was #105. I ordered my copy on Friday, but I think they are out of stock because it still is not in the process of being shipped.

It would sell even better if you could get it into the Borders in and around Nashville!b [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Mason, I bought it at Borders last week. Glad to hear it's been a great success, and I wish you and 2+2 continued success!

I thank you for producing another great product, and I look forward to #2 in the Harrington on Hold 'em series (soon I hope). It's safe to say I'd be broke and would have given up the game without 2+2.

Hi CH:

We have shipped almost a thousand books to Amazon in six seperate orders. My guess is that because of the Holiday rush they got a little behind. But I expect them to catch up soon and expect many more orders from them.

Best wishes,
Mason

Congrats Mason. HoH is a subject matter that has been greatly missing from the shelves. The practice hands in HoH are fantastic, worth the price of the book for them alone. I am just begining the pot odds chapter, my only comment so far would be that I wish this chapter was earlier in the book.

On a related note, I am looking forward to David's NL book. What will be it's theme, will it focus more on NL cash games? Is the aim to be the HFAP of NL?

not to start a "hot deals" thread but if you order enough, amazon gives you shipping for free, so anybookforless isn't always 100% accurate.

I picked mine up on tuesday at Borders (last copy), and I'm only about 80 pages into it, but its great so far. Its very well written as well, and the problem hands are great. I wish you guys the best of luck with its success.
