Hello again everybody!
Last blog post was about a situation with my situation of trying to teach my father how to play poker, in mostly a casino FR setting as he is technologically behind and has trouble using computers. I myself play 6-max online, so I am not quite accustomed to the differences in full-ring play.
Received some good feedback, but one e-mail in particular was from a guy named Tri. Tri Nguyen, as some of you may not know, was the co-author, along with Cole South, of "Let There Be Range," a fantastic e-book that has become one of the top poker reads for current day online play. Tri e-mailed me after reading my blog and asked if I would read and review his new e-book that is coming out, "Dynamic Full Ring Poker- Beyond the Basics." I responded that I would be honored to do so.
I am going to read and review the book, and do my best to get my father to read it as well. From quickly looking through the table of contents, the book reviews full-ring pre-flop hand selection, isolating certain opponents, various player types, 3-betting, squeezing, check raising, etc. etc. It appears any question you may have about more advanced strategies in poker, this book covers it.
I expect to learn quite a bit, and maybe my father will read it as well. I'm not quite sure yet, as he reads a lot but has never read an e-book. If he doesn't, maybe I will have to break out the white board to explain the concepts to him  Now my next problem is trying to find time to read this monster 353 page e-book while still playing poker and studying for finals...Oh yeah gotta find time to sleep too :/
Here is a link to the book
http://dailyvariance.com/poker-books/dynamic-full-ring-poker/
Quite the reasonable price too, and it is currently on sale for $97. Compared to other e-books on poker that I have seen go for close to 1k, this is a steal.
I will write up another blog post when I am finished to review the book and give my thoughts, feelings, etc. on everything it covers.
Happy holidays everyone, and remember to take some time off poker and spend it with your family

I don't believe so, it may be more geared towards micro/small FR, but looking at the concepts covered it appears that a lot of the concepts will bleed into mid stakes as well. Maaaaybe high stakes, but I imagine if you are playing those stakes, you understand at least the majority in this book. |

| I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |
