Default Re: How many here would buy a book by Hoyt Corkins?

Hi Rowdy:

Hoyt occasionally posts to these forums, so perhaps we'll get an answer from him.

Best wishes,
Mason

I didn't know Corkins posted here, I see he is a recent addition. I also see he is a man of few words not only at the poker table but in the forums as well. I read all 12 posts he has made so far and I have already used more words in this 1 post then he did in all 12 of his. That makes me doubt a book would be forthcoming.

I love Hoyt's play. But.... and this would apply to Hoyt or Gus Hansen, etc. How can you teach feel and aggression? I don't think you could capture the dynamic and context of their game in print. Like they say in pro sports. you can't teach speed.

Now watching this style being applied in say a 2 HR DVD with very informative voice over and supporting odds, outs, etc. would be worthwhile. Say a $100 SnG, the hands replayed just like they were in the tournament on screen.

I'd like to see a book from Hoyt on Razz. I know he made a final table 2 yrs ago?

Go HOYT!!!!

Maybe a book on his life and his return to the game would be interesting. He seems like a really nice guy and seems to keep his cool at the table. His only mistake I have seen was in season II of the WPT at the Pokerstars Carribean Adventure when Hansen sucked out on him and he went on tilt and handed Hansen the title.
