Default When Is Sklansky on NL coming out? I need the NL TORAH!

When is MR. Sklansky coming out with the bible on NL play? There are no good books out and I can't wait for him to come out with it. Please tell me soon, I will personally pay $1000 for an advance copy.

Sklansky is primarily a limit player.

There is a pretty good book on NL by some guy named Brunson. I heard he is coming out iwith an update on it.

Also Harrington and Raymer are both coming out with books on NL tournament play.

The NL tournament book by McEvoy and Daugherty is good, but not real advanced.

Although Harrington's book is techincally geared towards NL tourneys, the first volume deals with the early stages of tournaments, which are similar to cash game situations. If the book is as good as Mason says, it should be the best NL book written to date (I refuse to compare a poker book to the Torah, Bible, or any religious text).

why compare something logical that has real utility to writings that have brainwashed billions and contributed to untold death, murder, and other unpleasant things possibly including but not in any stretch of the word limited to genocide?

obviously theyre not in the same league whatsoever. :-)

Word is Sklansky and Miller are writing a NL book. I could be wrong, but I think it was supposed to be a beginner's level book.

Hi MEbenhoe:

No. It will be much more sophisticated than beginners level.

Best wishes,
Mason
