Meh, probably more me than him. I found the first 7 chapters or so to be full of basic to the point of being insulting for anyone even remotely familiar with poker that it just turned me off. If his intent was to start from scratch then that's fine. I guess I just think it rare that anyone would come to O8 as their first game and not be familiar with the stuff he covered. Ymmv.
Went back and found my tweet about when I was tilted from it:
You put out a poker book in 2011 and feel the need to include hand rankings and wisdom nuggets like "Pros refer to bad players as fish." #ORLY
As I said, I can't comment on the strat because I didn't get that far. And yes, I could have skipped all the BS, but that's just not how I roll with books. /OCD
