I bought this book to learn short-stack PLO. After a couple of weeks it became clear to me that the strategy presented in the book is incredibly efficient - even if you lack some routine and practice in PLO play, like I did.

I kind of hope that no-one else would read this book, because I'd rather have an edge in the tables that I play.

This book doesn't give too many good advice on deep-stack play, so you'll have to go somewhere else for that.
