Title: Book Feedback??
Post by: Mark S. on October 04, 2005, 02:46:48 PM
If any of you that received a copy of my book last week would like to give me some feedback I'd much appreciate it.

We're hoping to produce an updated version early next year so your thoughts on how we can approve things are helpful.

Thanks.

Mark

I replied on recieving the book but bacame part of a deleted thread. I copy and paste it below.

Hello all

Just recieved my free texas hold`em poker book from Mark (one of the lucky twenty!!) so thanks for the freebie.

I have had a quick skip through it and it looks quite neat and well presented with usefull ideas and charts. An ideal book for newbies and inexperianced players. Only criticism is that there is not much originality but then again your not re inventing the wheel. In summary, amongst all the books that are on the subject of poker this is equally, and indeed just as good or better, than a lot of the stuff on the market. Good luck with it.

I'm more than sure people can't wait to give you feedback on your kind book offer Mark, but it's probably best if people do it via PM :)

People stop giving this guy ukpoker a hard time, the guy has come on here, given helpful advice and made some constructive posts. Also hes given away some freebies.

All that seems to happen are his posts are ignored, talked down or abused. Just doesnt seem fair to me

He's had no abuse on this thread. My feeling is that, as he's had all the free advertising by talking about his book and  giving freebies away and asking for reviews, it only seems fair that any HONEST feedback is also given publicly.

Well just remember - ALL of you - keep it civil please. Debate all day long, argue till the cows come home, but no personal abuse please. I will not allow another week like we had last week.

Sure i understand everyones points but the guy only seems like hes trying to help us or benefit us and doesnt seem to get enough credit for it. Maybe not on this thread but certainly other threads there has been some sarcasm and negativety about his 'spam'. Hes not the only one who has publicised on here about their products so i dont see how he should be treated any different.

although I must admit I dont know what went on, on the other forum

but I never judge a book by its cover, its best to see the good in people

and make your own opinions rather than follow other second hand opinions.

But each to his own I suppose
