Let's hope it is and I look forward to reviews from ppl who have ordered it.
I agree with the earlier comments that Harrington keeps up. I have HOH 1, 2 and 3, and he mentions many times that there there was a new group of looser players that are very successful. He saw what was coming.
Harrington also sat down and talked with the authors of
Kill Everyone, and they discussed the differences in the stategies laid out in their books. According to Kill Everyone, footnote 12:
"Since the first printing of
Kill Everyone, we've talked with Dan Harrington and he agress with us on this point.* If fact, he may even remove the 10-to-1 Rule from future editions of his book."
The bottom line is that Harrington is not, and never has been, out of touch with the trends in tournament poker.

*Ironically, this is Harrington, who is widely regarded as a tight player, admitting to LAG poker authors that in being willing to play any two cards heads up with a 10-1 chip advantage, he was making a play that was incorrect because it was too loose a call.
