OK, here's my crack at it. One version of the cover:



Here's another cover version with a simpler background:



And here's a try at a back cover:



My wife and I were in disagreement about the cover style. I said it should look something like the other 2+2 books, for uniformity sake. She says no, so she's going to do her own submission! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Mason,
Can we get some critiques here? What ones have caught your eye? Any out there that are good but need a little tweaking?

[Mason Malmuth]

Hi Agent:

I think several are very good. However, I'll have to sit with the NPA before any official comments are made.

Best wishes,
Mason

I don't have the royalties to the photo, but I'm guessing any cover with a photo would need to be re-taken at a higher resolution anyway.

I don't think that understanding stack size is a good blurb for the front of hte book.

Maybe the back instead?

I'm also not 100% sure that the term "nuts and bolts" is what you're looking for.

Ever since you guys republished HEPFAP and SSHE without the hand pictures, I've been wanting to rewrite the rest of your books, so here's my shot at what could be on the cover if I ran the world. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]


Maybe:



Getting Started in Hold'em

Strategy - Tactics - Evaluating Your Play

No-Limit Holdem

Limit Holdem

Tournament Holdem
-Satelites
-Multi-Table Tournaments
-Single-Table Tournaments

Edit: Change Tournament Holdem to Tournament Strategy
