Content of Ace on the River
Is Barry G.'s book a strategy book or more of stories and examples. I don't want to buy it, thinking it's going to have insight into his playing style for tournaments, ring games and such and find out it's nothing more than a history of his career. Does anyone know what the contents of the book will be?

Thanks. Looks like it could be good, but I think I'll wait for some 2+2 reviews before making a decision. I don't know why he would need 100 full color photos, though. Any thoughts?
