what? how? I just bought it but didn't know that!

What sux is I used to be such an active blogger, I think I have the most blog posts on the site actually, but I slowed down right when the free ones were being given out so I missed my chance T_T to get it free! So I hope I can at least get the %10 off!

btw, does it take a while for the lock lizard email to come through?

just made the payment waiting for the book ...

Quoting SlowHabit:

"Yes. Email DailyVarianceBook@gmail.com with the subject "Rebate LP10."

Ordered and w8ting

Slow PM'd me about the 10%, nice guy. Book is working and pretty good if you ignore all the editorial mistakes (lots of little typos, some are bad though cause they're in key spots for understanding an explanation. Like one time he says to try to get to showdown with bottom set... I think there was an editing mistake on which hand he was talking about).

It took a while for the lizard lock email to come through but once it did everything was smooth.

I'm a complete noob and so far this book is the best printed work I've ever read because of how organized and in-depth it is. Great work!

yeah the editorial mistakes I assumed would be fixed for the final version, unfortunate. The hand example (I know exactly which 1 you're talking about lol) is a good specimen showing that his editor was ASLEEP :/

Please PM me the mistakes when you have a chance.

We had two editors too

There are some pages with half a dozen mistakes. You need to fire your editors.

ya you should take another look through it with fresh eyes, you'll catch a bunch of them. I'll try to send you some that I catch.. I'm no editor meself ^_^

I'll read it again in a few days. I basically memorized the book haha.

Read the book and then played a session afterwards, I feel like it really has got me thinking a lot again. It goes over good spots to overbet, good spots to fire double barrels, good spots to bluff shove rivers, and good spots to bluff in general. Definitely worth $100 to any person at 200 nl or below imo.

ok i paid for the book via stars transfer

since you cant use rebate code there, so i just sent 97$ - 10% = 87.30$ and in email i wrote about LP10 code.

is it okay Tri ?

That's fine.

BTW, the price is no longer $97. It's at $117 now.

This probably doesn't apply to you since I think you already paid.

If anyone's interested, here's my graph since reading the book:

I know, sample size. But seriously my red line is a mirror image compared to what it used to be.

at 5.5k or the whole thing? ;o

i mean past the 5.5k mark seems to indicate more of a style change than the previous 5.5k

small sample size but u just wanna be careful with these concepts

i hate these graphs ^^

guys stop thinking the book just instantly made you winnings players... its retarded

Ya this is true but a bit of a brutal way to say it. These books def have value even if they technically dont have value. You cant simply go "oh lol slowhabbit says this is good? ok ill start doing it then" because it usually depends on a bunch of factors. If you're presented with 1000 ideas, you are just presented with them and given the option to think then implement them if its appropriate.

so you can only read the book online if I get this right?
because I never manage to read a book from the screen
