Not sure about Harker, but Fox writes articles for www.thepokerforum.com.

However, it appears most of his articles are about Omaha.

Gentlemen,

Here is an interesting quote from Fox's article 'Laissez les bons temps rouler':


"I will admit that I’m not the world’s greatest Texas Hold’em player. However, many of my opponents in that game had no clue whatsoever of what they were doing."
R.Fox


Hopefully his partner is the HE expert!

Also, I should add that some of his Omaha articles provide good insights/hand analyses.

Cheers,
the Real Macoy

I consider Russ Fox to be a friend. I have played poker with him quite often. It is true that as of a few years ago Russ was more of an Omaha8 player than a Hold'em player, but even so he was a good Hold'em player, winning the NL event at BARGE a few years back over a tough field.

I also know that he has focussed his attention on NL Hold'em over the last few years for reasons that should be obvious.

I've discussed many poker situations with Russ and have been impressed with his analytical ability and insight. I am looking forward to reading this book.

Just my $0.02.

ncp,

Having no previous knowledge of Fox, I went forth and read a bunch of his articles. I was actually surprised that the numerous articles were actually basically all covering OM. My email was not meant to be personally disparaging as I have no knowledge of his HE experience....rather if any inference was made it was based on the articles and his own assessment of his HE abilities.

I am looking forward to the book, as there is much need for a good NL cash-game book, but I will be sitting back to find out if it's worth my dollars. Especially as S&M, with noteworthy(!) HE experience, are working on a similar book.

Cheers,
the Real Macoy
