This book continues Jonathan Little's mantra of a calm & cold approach to poker where logic & common sense triumph over the LAG weasels that currently occupy the profitable poker zone defined by Bill Chen as "just short of maniac". I tend to agree with Jonathan Little's philosophy and since spending time with his books thinking about the elements Jonathan highlights, my online cashes and deep runs have increased. Alos my qualifications to numerous World Poker Tour events around the world in 2014 have doubled to 6, so clearly this book is an important and excellent read for the amateur poker player interested in playing more seriously against real competition.

Thank you Jonathan. I met you at the World Poker Tour Cyprus 2009 where you briefly joined our group of amateur and pro poker players arguing about the Gold Olympic Medal in Ice Hockey (obv Canada was going to win but you can imagine what the Swedes said ....) and the role of relative position in poker. You said that position was the most important concept in the game to understand.
