Hold'em Brain. Personally I thought it sucked

Almost everyone I contacted about the old title said it sucked (or tried to say it in a nice way). Out of 40 people, Ed is now only the third person that liked it. The credit for the current title goes to Brian at the Gambler's Book Shop.

Ed, thanks for the nice comments.

Is there any particular reason why your book has such a long "availibilty time" at Amazon and is there any faster way to order it?

This book is just getting to much praise from several more or less independent poker authorities not to be added to my collection.

The second printing is coming out soon. My publisher sold out his first printing three weeks ago, and I suspect the distributers and the retailers are now empty or close to it. Hopefully the second printing should be coming out this week as they promised.

Conjelco carries it, although I don't know if they have any in inventory.

You can pick up weighing the odds at holdemtight.com I believe (was there late last week).

There was a thread a few weeks ago where someone linked the book on Walmart's on line site. At the time it was in stock, for like 16 or 17 dollars plus shipping. That's where I got it, but I am not sure if it is still in stock there.

I was in GBC a few weeks ago to get your book. Leo says "You know, Brian came up with the title for the book". I think Brain was too modest to say anything himself. Also, I wasn't completely positive they weren't goofing around, but now I know they weren't goofing on me!

It's a clever title.
