I would pay 200$ if he wrote a book just dealing with the technical side of limit hold'em [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Default if Barry had alot of experience with online NL SNGs,

i would rather buy a [hand] book from him on big buy-in SNGs $215 and higher, both on Party's small stack and Pokerstars' bigger stack setup. i love to see hand examples of how he handles certain situations and opponents like LAG-weak, TAG strong/tough, LAG-thinking and tricky, TAG decent, etc.

I was glad to see an author include hands that he thinks he misplayed. Especially since everyone misplays hands from time to time. I think Rueben Stewart also did in his pot-limit holdem book.

If this book would make me win 10 million bucks, I'd pay 10k for it, maybe even more [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If the author is so rich that money doesn't matter anymore, it is also a philosophical question how much he should charge for his book.

There was a five hand meltdown in one round of play at the 2003 WSOP that led to my elimiation on day three. (Some of you will remember that I was the chip leader on day one.) I have only mentioned these hands to close family members. And now you want to pay me to describe what I did wrong. I would almost be more inclined to pay someone so I wouldn't have to expose my incompetence!

This should be crossposted to the Psych forum . . . it's very comforting to hear that no matter how insanely good one is at the game, there are still times that one's play is so bad (relative to how one *should* be playing) that ya just want to crawl in a hole and not come out for several weeks.
