Is Card player mag useful??

[PokerPaul]

i won years subscription.

after reading first couple of issues, i do find that the level of articles has improved since 5 years ago, however, they are mostly geared to low limits or novice players.

In fact, i get more out of the advertisements and tourney announcements than many of the writeres.

Many write articles about complete fluff, such as:
- soemtimes i switch playing online with my wife when me or she gets busy
- these are my pet peeves (straight forward stuff)
- pros explaining their bad beats or tourney exits without educational value for reader

There are a few that do write insightful articles that help the game for more seasoned players such as Jim Brier, Thunder Keller

Anyways, since i dont read other mags, how do they compare?
