Books Sales for SSHM

Does anybody know what the total number of sales is for SSHM?

[Ed Miller]

We've sold about 70k copies so far since release (July 2004).

That's a nice amount. The good news is the odds of running into someone who's read the book at your B&M table or online table are pretty slim. That's a good thing.

Thanks for the reply Ed.

However, that does not mean that there are 70K unique people who purchased the book. I, for example, am on my second copy. The first copy I bought is THRASHED from exessive reading (and the second copy is looking pretty bad now too!).

Great book, Ed!

Can't wait for your NL book!

I'm not sure Ed would necessarily agree.

Well, yeah I suppose the people buying it are the very same people who bother to have online accounts or go to poker rooms, but hopefully for my sake I won't run into them. After playing $2-$4 at the Borgata, it's pretty safe to say the games are still loosey goosey.

My number may be slightly off, but it's some like only 10% of people who buy a book get past the first chapter.

This looked like a promising post, but I only got as far as "My number may be slightly off"

Also, don't forget that just because someone has read a book doesn't mean they fully understand the concepts.
