Re: Any reviews for Crushing the Microstakes?

I am happy to finally announce that Crushing the Microstakes is now available on Kindle and for other e-readers. All sales through my website http://www.blackrain79.com/p/book.html will now include a mobi, epub and pdf version of the book.

If you are a previous buyer and want the mobi or epub versions please just email me at blackrain79@dragthebar.com and I will send them to you. Thank you for all the patience!

Re: Any reviews for Crushing the Microstakes?

Hey Nathan, I just checked it and I can confirm it is a perfect version now. The TOC works, formatting is great and the chapter buttons on Kindle now can be used. So yeah now it's a real ebook for ereaders. Totally usable .

Plug your phone into your computer and transfer it over. Or download dropbox on your computer and phone and transfer it over that way. You could actually probably just email to yourself if all else fails

Hey strongrad50,

For moving the files on to your phone just follow the advice that thenewbigmack gave. There are numerous ways, plugging your phone into the USB port of your computer and just transferring it probably being the easiest.

As for viewing it on the Kindle app, I don't think this is possible. I just got an Android phone myself and tried opening both the mobi and epub versions with no success. No success meaning that the app wouldn't even find them on my phone. Upon further googling it looks like Amazon has made it so that only Kindle files purchased through the Kindle store can be read on it. Clever bit of business skills right there.

Anyways, there are tons of other apps that you can download for free that will allow you to view these types of files. I am using a popular one called "FBReader" and both files came up fine for me. The epub looked flawless. The mobi was certainly readable but the page breaks didn't seem to be working all that well. But perhaps you can fix that in the settings. Hope this helps.

Re: Any reviews for Crushing the Microstakes?

Hey boys,
I bought the book a month ago, that helped me a lot. I saw peaple here talking about the diferences between FR and SH, higher and lower limits, well actually I think that the greatest point in this book is blackrain79 explaining how he does exploit the fishs, this kind of mentality, how exploit your oponent tendencies, would certanly help a person seeking to beat a higher stake, and has the same point either for FR or SH.

Re: Any reviews for Crushing the Microstakes?

Nathan,

Thanks for the help! Using FBreader as well, looks fantastic without having to use the kindle app. The book is awesome so far, btw. I could see some concepts having an impact in some of the live games I play in. Great job, and again, thanks for the help!

Re: Any reviews for Crushing the Microstakes?

I think this book is very good starting place for a beginner at online cash games because it greatly explains the play for limits that you play when you start.

IMO a lot of beginners get lost up in advice for more advanced play and try to apply it when they start (on these limits) and get discouraged because of different dynamics on these limits.
The price is also appropriate and you can breeze through it in a few hours and start applying it

The book looks like its been searched in the Kindle Store a million times, however it's not in the store. I assume the book can only purchased at your website and be transferred onto the kindle. Am I right?

Yep, you get it after you purchase it on his website or he sends it to you if you already bought it before.
