I was just buying the Des Wilson book and noticed that Scott Fischman has a new book out so I've ordered that aswell. Has anyone else read it yet?

ONLINE ACE?   I think it focuses on STT .  He said that in an interview I read recently .   I haven't read it though

Seems that every decent poker player is turning to writing these days.  Perhaps the pay is better!

i ordered the Fischman book about a month or so back.

Amazon have been putting the delivery date back constantly since. 3-5 weeks before i get it is the latest estimate. Surviving on Harrington III at the mo.

Don't expect yours soon unless your 'connected'...lol

I took some money from my Betfair account the other day after a MTT cash.  I thought I would buy myself a present and I ordered this book from amazon.  It should arrive sometime later this year or maybe next.  Some of their books take forever to arrive

I got mine a while ago, took 3 days. Its a reallly good simple book. If you are a good player, you wont get too much from the book, but you will certainly get reminded of a few key elements that you probably forget/ignore, so its definately worth the pittance that it costs to buy. If you are an average player, the book will be perfect for you, lays things out in a simple manner and is easy to read.

Thumbs up for this book.

For those that take a long time to get the books, I got mine from the "agents" rather then direct from amazon, where it says "new & used from £x.xx".. they always seem to deliver the non-mainstream books a lot faster then amazon itself

I think it is STT, but I also read there is four pages in the book about how to play Badugi.  So it could cover anything, I am waiting for my copy to arrive
