Harrington on Hold 'em is a book about both forms of tournaments. There isn't really one for just SnGs.

Why doesn't one of the luminaries on this forum write one? I've done a lot of writing/editing if someone wanted me to help with compiling the thing
(pm me). A quality SnG book would sell like crazy. Whether it would make the games harder to beat is another matter....

I believe HoH refers to Harrington on Holdem.

I'm relatively new to the forum, but the posts of curtains, citanul, durron, irieguy, bones, bluefeet and raptor (obviously not an exhaustive list) all suggest thorough understanding, fantastic results and the rare ability to clearly explain the reasoning behind poker decisions. If we could get 10 of the most respected posters to each submit a long essay followed by a series of illustrative problems, that could be an awesome book. I think people with veteran status should nominate writers and suggest a structure. It might be cool to have a structure like SuperSystem, with specialists in each aspect of the SnG (early, postflop, preflop, bubble, LAG, TAG, heads up, tricky plays, etc.) writing an essay on their specialty. I would be more than happy to edit for grammar and clarity, and to include my (albeit realtively noob) comments on the substance of the essays. If we could convince 2+2 to publish the book -- the lack of a serious SnG book is a serious gap in the 2+2 poker literature -- distribution and sales would be no problem. I guess the big question is whether the posters/players who would write the best essays could be motivated to do so....
