No, it's important. It's also very thoroughly covered in HE4AP. [/ QUOTE ] I have this and Ciaffone's book on my shelf. Guess it's time for a review. Thanks.

Re: Chinese Poker/SS2
Yeah, that's the tough part. I don't see myself playing 200-400 any time soon, barring a miracle satellite/tournament run at the New England Poker Championships. But I bet triple draw grows in popularity as people read SS2; if there are more games, they'll probably be tougher than other games at the same limit, but I'm always amazed at the number of people that fail to understand poker concepts; to a certain extent, 5-10 clowns will always be 5-10 clowns.
And if that doesn't happen, there's always Ultimate Bet (and Full Tilt, I hear.) --Nate

Re: Super System 2 review
As BlackAces said, nutpeddling is waiting for only excellent hands (in O8, these are almost always the nuts.)
Theory of Poker is indispensable for learning a variety of poker games (especially because games come in and out of fashion.) If you want specific advice on several different games, I'd go with Super System 2. Play Poker Like the Pros is awful, and will actually make your game worse if you believe what it says, because it's teeming with horrible muddy poker thinking. Ciaffone/Reuben's PL/NL Poker is a good tour through big-bet games. The original Super System has good information on a lot of games, but is rather outdated; also, though the chapters are all good, each individual one* has been surpassed in quality by a newer book (usually the 2+2 one.) --Nate *except maybe draw and lowball, because those games aren't widely played any more
