Re: HOH 2, WILL THIS RUIN POKER?
[ QUOTE ]
After reading HOH 2, I am amazed at the amount of info it provides and the though occured to me that this info could be the end of NL tourny poker as we know it. Books one and two are so good that even a novice can read them and have a good grasp on how to beat the game. I for one will be putting more time into Omaha as it is now only a matter of time until hold'em will be another 7 card stud. [/ QUOTE ] Are you serious? How many fishes do you think are interesting in reading poker books?

How many fishes do you think are interesting in reading poker books? Listen, how can the pro's compete as most people who are entering large events are net qualifiers who read most books on the subject. Where is their edge now? No one on this site ever talked about a M or a Q or red, organge zone until this came out. Heads up stratagy is worth the price of the book alone. No it will not ruin the internet or b and m play but how long will it last when a bunch of unknowns start making final tables instead of pros. Harrington is older and wiser and is making a bundle by writing these books. In a way it could be his way of having the last laugh as he is now heading to retirment while others are just starting to make thier mark. Just wondering if this same thing happened when Super System was first released.

Re: HOH 2, WILL THIS RUIN POKER?
Let me explain it this way, once a magician's tricks are revealed it raises the bar to come up with a whole new bag of tricks as the audience(fish) will know what he is doing and no longer be fooled. He can come up with new tricks or he is now a dinasaur in his trade.
