as Simon says Sheriff has it and has promised a review for blonde asap


As he has hardly posted or been seen on MSN for a week,  I think its a fair bet to say he is engrossed in it.

I'm actually reading the new Sklansky book before starting on HOH3.  The World Cup is having a major effect on progress though.

As an interim review I can tell you that the cover is a rather dull gray, which is much less interesting than the blue of HOH1 and the red of HOH2!

Never judge a book by its cover... ::) ::) ::)

yep just got mine too.  he mixes the problems up nicely, combining some fabricated hands with some well known hands which you'll probably recognise such as the jennifer harman WSOP 05 hit when she ran her full house in to a rivered straight flush.  He discusses things openly and in a lot of detail, and doesnt always agree with the actions.  Analysis is every step of the way from preflop all the way thru the streets.  I've got no complaints so far.

As luck happens I ordered volume 2 with my stars FPP points and they accidentally sent me vol3, and are sending me vol2 free of charge and I dont have to return vol3 ^_^.

I'll be going through it on my 4hrs worth of planetime tomorrow, I had a go through the first few sections and it seems pretty good, its really aimed at improving players logic and postflop skills - similar to the problems in HOH1/2 but with more in depth analysis.
