How many here would buy a book by Hoyt Corkins?
On NLHE tournament and strategy? I would be very interested in the thought processes behind he hyper-aggressive style and how he makes it work so well for him.

Shouldn't be a very extensive book, just continue to pound on the short stacks when you have the chip lead with all-in raises. If you're called hope to get lucky with your 8-3 off or what have you. :-P

Re: How many here would buy a book by Hoyt Corkins?
I wouldn't buy it unless I heard good things about it. On the other hand, I would buy anything that Barry Greenstein or Chip Reese or Doyle Brunson wrote (not his online book) because they are top players and very intelligent people.
I don't have any reason, prima facie, to think Hoyt would write anything that is a meaningful contribution (accurate+original) to NL hold em strategy. |

C'mon you must be kidding me, Yes He wrote a nice piece on Hold'em back in the late seventies, but that is it as to pokeradvice Supersystem II is joke (The Doyle Brunson part that is .. and come to think of it also the Caro part, he kind of suffers from the same defects as Brunson), and it is clear that he is just milking his famous name to sell reprints of old material and tales of The Wild West (actually I like his tales, but as a pokerinstructor I do not think he will contribute with anything more) He derserves praise for the original supersystem and for being a worldclass player, but his days as a great writer seem to over. |

You should be ashamed of yourself, that's all I have to say.

Re: How many here would buy a book by Hoyt Corkins?
Why are you asking this question? Is Hoyt planning on writing a book?
And to answer your question, there is no poker book that I would buy just because of an author's reputation, but I'd be willing to purchase any book that has received consistant good reviews. |

Re: How many here would buy a book by Hoyt Corkins?
I have no knowledge of Corkins writing a book. There has been alot of talk on the Kill Phil book and Corkins was the most sucessful pro I could think of who uses that type of Allin strategy. He has also defintely been a thorn in Phil Hellmuths side as well, the recent WSOP TOC being a perfect example.
