Teaching a friend Hold'em 101 & Basic SnG Strategy from scratch.

I wouldn't make hime read any of that stuff(at least in the beginning) $11 sng's are formulaic sp?. Teach him a basic strategy, get him to buy SNGPT, and then set him loose.
Tell him to analyze his bubble play with SNGPT.
And then if he's really interested in the game, try not to get peaved with his constant onslaught of questions.
And once he's winning, reading the books will cease to be work to him.

And, I think quitting your job,THEN learning to play sng's is a bad strategy.
Shooby.
