Poker Notes
After many edits, Poker Notes is finally complete. This isn’t a story, but a strategy book for current and aspiring poker players. It’s geared toward beginners, but intermediate and advanced players will pick up some crafty ideas as well.
While Poker Notes is a strategy book, it’s written in simple form, and it’s hopefully entertaining. I purposely avoided complicated poker terminology that would frustrate and confuse beginners. At the same time, some of the strategies offered are highly advanced. The goal was to make these strategies easy to understand and implement.
What makes this book different from other poker strategy books is that it offers an unorthodox approach to making money at the poker table. The most common philosophies are applied by millions of poker players today, leading to a zero-sum game in many situations. This book shows you how to tip the scales heavily in your favor.
I'm currently waiting on the cover. Poker Notes should be published in about one week -- give or take a few days.

Published 'The Poker Office' Too Early
Unfortunately, I published this book a little too early. I usually receive one review per 50 sales or so, but in this case, I received a review on the very first sale.
This reader didn't like the vulgarity and pointed out a couple of flaws. She was spot-on with the flaws, which I have since fixed. The problem is that she left a 2-star review, which isn't going to lead to too many sales. Since all her other reviews were 1-star, I guess I should be appreciative.
I have no one to blame but myself for this error. I read The Poker Office over and over again, but everyone needs a second set of eyes. Fortunately, there was only one sale prior to the adjustments. So, anyone who reads it now will be reading the good version.
In a perfect world, that first reader would have contacted me here (I have a note at the back of all my books that readers can contact me on GoodReads) and let me know about the errors. But not everyone is that nice. So ... to all those nice people out there, you're awesome! :)
