Does this sound dirty to anyone else???  :)

Dusty, I have now read your book 5 times (I suck at getting everything from content the 1st time) and I'd like to say that I really love the non-strategy part of the book.  Very motivational and I think it lays out a very specific and achievable plan for those willing to work hard.

The strategy section on the other hand seems like an add-on.  Not that it's not good or anything but it seems inconsistent.  For instance in the section on small pairs you recommend opening with all pairs but in the section on early position you say toss 22-66 from EP unless there is a couple of really bad players at the table (preferably in the blinds).

There are a few other little things in that section which I have somehow just forgotten (looks like I'll give it a 6th read lol) that seem to contradict earlier advice and those small things, I feel, take away from that part of the book.

Tell the truth (and I have no reason to believe you wouldn't), was the strategy part of the book an afterthought?  Something that you felt compelled to add just to appease to poker book buying public?  Personally if it wasn't there I would have been just as happy with the book.

Edit: I'd also like to hear something more from your wife now that you have a daughter.  Her section feels like it was written before she was born so I was just wondering if any of her thoughts on being with a poker player had changed in the last 7 months or so.
