Easy Title.. Want to know if anyone has read it yet... I'm very interested in the book, now different it is from number one.. the content.. everything. I want to pick the book up when I can, but right now I think you can only get it @ doylesroom if i'm not mistaken.

Yeah, that's what I saw as well so I didn't think it was possible to get at this time.

I think everyone that plays at Doyle's room can get the book early. I'm not totally sure about that but I think I heard that somewhere

Besides having several new players added to the list of contributing authors like Crandall Addington who has played with a guy I play with I think it will tackle Omaha and 8/b. Also I beleive it will segregate NL from PL games as PLO is extremely popular, and has its own style of play.P.S.- When is this thing coming out, I have a crack like addiction to poker related literature.P.P.S.- How many of you read Card Player magazine?

I read card player.... I love it. Not only because it's poker related and has amazing articles, but the quality of the print is excellent. High gloss color front page and back page.... feels nice in my hands :shock:

On the subject of the magazine...How often is it published? Is it a monthly magazine? I am interested in subscribing, but with the high price of it, I want to make sure I am getting my money's worth. --cnm

A friend of mine has gotten it through Doyle's Room. I briefly leafed through it, but did not have time to make any quick comparisons.

www.doylesroom.com, actionpoints are given to all that are in the hand up to a max. of 300 AP per hand, the points are shared between those in the hand, if you play micro limits it will take some time to get it, but at $1/2 it takes around 40 hours of play I think.

I cleared the 10k action points, waiting for it to be delivered."A GUY I KNOW" already got it and says that it's pretty damn good, that's all he's said as he's too busy digesting it.As far cardplayer magazine, you can get a COMPLETELY FREE subscription if you register an account at bodog.com, don't even have to make a deposit as far as I know. Then you just follow the ad on their site to the cardplayer promo and follow the instructions there.

Hi there, I read this book and its awesome..First of all I ordered it off Amazon it was then cancelled and the only way you could get it was to gain 10,000 action points on doyles room, I pretty much collected those points straight away took me around 8 hours of solid play at 2 no limit tables..Then I had to wait around 2 months for it to be delivered :D I was really looking forward to reading the book and Daniel Negreanu had a section in the book..I wasnt sure what section it would be and was a little disapointed when he was NOT writting up for NoLimit Holdem Ring Games or Tourneys, his section is well written and great advice but on draw poker.... Still the limit section is good lots of blank spaces and gaps you need to fill in yourself, still worth a read =)Also if you get the book off doyles room its the hard back leather bound copy =)

It's nice to just pick a magazine up and relax on the couch instead of staring at the screen. Seeing as it's free there's no reason you shouldn't get it unless you already have a subscription (or don't like reading!).
