Well, if winnings and profit/loss are the gage, than Gus should be avoided.

Anyone can learn how they like, but to advise people (probably mostly inexperienced players, thats who wants to know which books are good) to disregard most books as a waste of time - AND to suggest to the same players to chose a training site instead - is simply bad advice IMO.

There are many good books out there, and even the outdated ones (some of em) have a lot of good basic info for a beginner. A book is a solid investment at 20$, provided it is a recommended one from solid experienced players. It can be re-read and become clearer as time goes on.

A training site will only really benefit a player who is ready to understand what to do with the knowledge. I think training sites are generally a very good thing, but its the walk before you run thing. If you dont have the basics down - starting hands/position, basic player reads, pot odds, implied and reverse implied odds, relative stacks/position, and on and on and on, than a training site will cost you soooooo much money to learn this and a book (or 2) will let you learn and digest as you like.
