Book Projects

[Mason Malmuth]

Hi Everyone:

This is a copy of a post of mine from the News, Views, and Gossip forum.

Best wishes,

Hi dayrn:

You hit the nail on the head.

The biggest EV for me by far is in our publishing business. I would like to play a few tournaments, and this includes the no limit tournaments, but I literally don't have time.

I am now committed to four different book projects. The first everyone knows about. It's called Small Stakes Hold 'em; Winning Big with Expert Play by Ed Miller, David Sklansky, and Mason Malmuth. The second is Business is a Poker Game by Allan Schoonmaker who thinks he owns the Psychology forum.

The books three and four are not titled yet but a portion of the first of these is written and I have material to review. All I will say now is that the author of these books is a former WSOP winner and they are about no limit hold 'em tournament strategy. As I get more into the project, I will release more information.

Best wishes,
Mason

What are the odds that it is Dan Harrington?

My second guess would be Chris Ferguson.

I would like to read books by either indeed.

Ferguson was my guess as well...I doubt Mason will spill the beans anytime soon. Maybe we can lay odds and start taking action.

i'll guess that its a collaborative work between Hellmuth, Varkonyi, and S&M...Any takers?

Mason,

A serious question from one of the least serious posters around.

Which is more difficult:

Playing winning poker - or -

Writing and publishing a quality book?


Regards,

Zeno

PS I know the answer. But I want you to say it. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I wouldn't be surprised if Mason delineated a difference between "winning" poker, and "world class."

After all, winning poker isn't that difficult. Learning to play ABC winning poker isn't tremendously hard.

I had heard that it was going to be a collaboration between Phil Helmuth and Sam Grizzle.
