I love Peter Clarke's book but with one exception: I realize he wanted to make a 'university textbook' on poker but perhaps it would have been better to separate it into a few volumes - it's very hard to digest because of a too simple TOC, and the sheer volume of material & graphical hand-histories & diagrams.

So I've started my own "Cliff's notes", starting with an improved TOC. But it's a giant project because of so much graphical content. I paraphrase text in my own words but extract important graphical pages & figures using a PDF Extractor program - then organize it all in Evernote or Word, for my own personal use.

Might do the same with his "100 Hands" book.

BTW: during my graduate Physics degree I did the same for Landau's famous "Quantum Mechanics: Non-Relativistic Theory", which helped me a lot.

I'm also a huge fan of TGM, and recently had the same thought as you. First I decided to see if it already existed and when I searched "Grinders Manual Cliffs Notes" your post was the only relevant hit.
I don't suppose you'd be willing to share what you have compiled so far on Peter Clark's book(s)?
