Forgive me if this has been answered before

I read somewhere on this thread a bit ago that all the other issues 1 and 2 are coming with this book but not the paperback is that true false?

cheers



False. The paperback and the ebook are the same.

not at all, as the entire text of the first two editions is included in this edition. I think it will be equally accessible to people who have and haven't read/had access to the original book--people who already know Easy Game pretty well will get to see which advice I think is good and which advice I think isn't, whereas all the people who haven't read Easy Game will get to experience the whole book for the first time. ''

Me = confused

btw i meant in the book with my orginal question not there separate books that perhaps wasn't all that clear.

One more question what level do you think this will help most micro/small/mid/high?

cheers

All versions (paperback, ebook, kindle, EPUB) are the same.

The 3rd edition (regardless of which format) contains all the information from the first two editions, as well as new content.

I expect it should be helpful for all poker players, regardless of levels.

Does that answer your question?

Need to clarify-- 3rd edition does not include Matt Colletta's HU section, or Steve Cesaro's Shortstacking chapter.

Everything else is there, though.

disclaimer: i no longer coach or really play poker anymore whatsoever, and i have not been in contact with andrew for a long time, probably since our episodes of coaching tree 2. i have not read the updated version of easy game.

that said, this is the best $60-70 any poker player could spend, at any stakes. the original volumes 1&2 were amazing, and cost over 20x more if i recall correctly. i could be wrong: i was on the baluga team at the time of release so i didn't have to pay. Smile regardless, no matter what limits you are playing this is a STEAL.

there is a ton of content for the price relative to coaching. if i were still coaching i would make every one of my students buy this before i would even consider accepting their money myself. i would recommend watching the coaching tree and using easy game as a reference, since that series was essentially andrew coaching me through the text without me realizing it at the time. of course the book provides way more content...much more than 8 hours of video could. i now realize that some of the earliest coaching i received from andrew (2006-2007) was based on knowledge that would then make its way into this book.

my favorite thing about andrew's theories is that they provide a fairly complete system for analyzing decisions, and are logically consistent while remaining simple and easy to understand. once you understand some poker math and start to develop reads, not only will you crush fish, but you will also begin to exploit regs as you realize their theoretical mistakes and devise strategies to defeat them.

Andrew, this may seem a stupid question (and in all likelihood is) but is Canada considered US or non-US for ordering the paperback?
