Beware of Harrington Cash game book(s)? on Kindle (Now Available)

I was shopping on AMAZON and found the Harrington on Hold Em Cash games books. I bought Part II first as it was first up on my search list.

They don't offer part I on the Kindle. Very strange and stupid.

Not sure if I am the stupid one for not checking.


So now I have a digital book that starts at chapter 6 and have to buy the physical one to read the first part.

Currently, my education on NLH is starting on "Turn Play"

It is up to Amazon to offer and convert the books to Kindle format as 2+2 has authorized this. Contacting their customer service to point this out might help.

good luck with that, this is the least written about subject in NLHE. If I remember rightly Harrington's most important feature about turn play was that "there was one card to come".

I liked the Harrington on Cash series. While I think Amazon should offer both books on Kindle and they likely made an error - this is also your fault. Beware of buying without understanding what you're buying - take responsibility for your mistake too. I suggest you but a hard copy of Harrington I, it's a nice series. Good luck.

Hi Amulet:

Amazon apparently lost what we sent them, and everything has been resent. Hopefully, Volume I will be up fairly soon.

Best wishes,
Mason

It should. Our PDF's and epubs do.

Who should I complain to if there are formatting errors in a 2+2 Kindle book? In the Stud-8/Omaha-8 book some of the graphics are misplaced and don't match up with the text.

We're initiating contact with Amazon again to find out what the delay is.

Don't ever fold before the turn. Once you get there the book should give you a good idea of what to do.
