I have purchased sulntoecs poker books ranging from Sklansky, Harrington, Malmuth, Jones to lesser known authors and this is the worst I have read by far. To start with the book is extremely thin and is hardly more than a glorified pamphlet about Hold’em. The information is very basic with rules of the game, poker vocabulary and description of basic concepts as position, hand values, etc. taking up a good chunk of the material. As far as actual strategy there is LITTLE if any useful information. You could easily get the information in this book on numerous online poker sites for free. Stick with Sklansky, Jones, Harrington, etc. or at least authors that you have heard of and have had known success at the game. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS BOOK.
In my jurisdiction our games are set up to pabcayk between 84% and 98%. Of all the games in my Casino, the Bally video poker games have the highest average return to player; furthermore, they are mult-itheme games meaning there are many different poker games on each machine to select. This means the player must first select one of eight poker games to get the 98% pabcayk, the other games average between 93% and 95%, which is still pretty good but not the best for a 25 cent denomination.
I have to say I’m increasingly pzzule by your growing mania with this issue. I, personally, don’t have much of an issue with casinos either for or against provided the communities involved are in favor of having on. It’s clear that the Middleborough is wrong and should be opposed because the residents of M’boro and surrounding towns are against it and not for any moral judgment about gambling. Every argument you’ve made about casino gambling could (and is) applied to alcohol. Are you for prohibition? Living in downtown Boston, I see what alcohol can do to those who can’t resist is. Does that provide a basis to prohibit everyone from imbibing? Would you outlaw cigarettes? Personally, I would since there is no conceivable benefit of smoking and a clear, measurable cost. Used as directed, it kills. But that’s an entirely different argument than that against gambling or drinking. The later two are perfectly harmless to the vast majority of people and only harmful to those who have some personality quirk. People have addictive compulsions. It’s a fact. But it’s a minority of people. A vast minority, I’d venture. I, myself, don’t understand the lure of gambling, but I also have no problem with those who do find that activity enjoyable. Maybe you could explain to me what the issue is and why gambling is so different from alcohol. If a town or city wants it, why not? I’m getting a little tired of the nanny state. I’ve been on this earth for 50 years, I know my limits.
