There's a little recurring meme running around the internet that books are...outdated, irrelevant, obsolete, etc.  What a load of hubris!? Sure, the game has evolved - of course; but let's be honest - most of us don't and will never play at high roller stakes where most of the changes have taken place and matter the most. Those players look for any marginal differences necessary to outperform the other pros.

Here's a great book from a great poker player - "Super System" by Doyle Brunson which shook the poker world in 1978. This guy played poker professionally for [U]over 50 years[/U] and won the WSOP main event twice. His total live tournament winnings are over 6 million not to mention cash games. This summer he announced his retirement but not before he entered the $10,000 2-7 Single Draw at the 2018 WSOP and came in sixth place, earning $43,963. Not bad for an 84 year old!!

Brunson has forgotten more about poker than most of us know.

If his poker performance is outdated or obsolete, I'll take it anyday. Sign me up.
