Looks very interesting...I'll order a copy when Amazon deems the UK worthy to receive it.

The book is published by Pi Yee Press (Stanford Wong), and it was copy-edited.

FWIW, I played a lot with King Yao a few years ago in the Planet Poker 20-40 game. He is an excellent player and was definitely on my "don't mess with him" list.

The book looks pretty interesting to me as well. Will it be in Borders/BN?

Its on bn.com (no picture of the cover yet though) and borders teams up with amazon online. I'm expecting to see it in the physical bookstores sooner or later, I'm not sure how long it takes though.

I haven't seen this book yet but I did read the draft for King's first book "Hold'em Brain" and thought it was excellent. I enjoyed it so much that I even helped him with some of the editing.

I have no doubt that this book is also a great read.

In the initial drafts, this book was titled Hold'em Brain. It was changed to Weighing the Odds in Hold'em Poker after it became clear that few people liked the initial title. So its the same book.

Thank you avatar for your input! You were a great help.

I haven't read Small Stakes Hold'em, so I can't comment on it.

I'm going to buy the book ... but this comment scares me.
