Well it doesn't really apply to me anyway lol. It's not as if I actually lose money when I am not playing poker.

Munchrs, Thanks for the recommendation, was wondering what to get the SO for Christmas (+ I'll get to benefit also

).

KerouacsDog · Dec 17, 2009

sounds a good book, and I like the idea of paying for it via your poker account, does that also apply to people overseas, ie in the UK?

Marginal · Dec 17, 2009

Just ordered the book, I chose to get the PDF version because the hardcopy might take 7 years to reach my location. Hopefully I would be reading in 12 hours

I got mine within an hour. And I bought the combo pack so i'll get the hardcopy at some point too. Paid though FTP transfer which is nice. Obviously worth the price as it's only a fraction of a buy-in.

Cool - I be you will have it read before the well thread starts. I am going to try to break a self record once I get my hard copy. The good news is I find it easiest to concentrate on reading while on my treadmill so might get rid of those pesky extra post-xmas pounds at the same time hehe.

Hey not fair - I had to pay over 8 buy-ins for mine.

Oh great then, the sooner the better. I was reading 'John Dies at the End' by David Wong but I think I would put that down for this one.

have you got to the bit where John dies? I think it happens at the end.........

Just checked the Leatherass site, found that this book can be shipped to the UK for an extra $12, bargain, will order soon!

tenbob · Dec 17, 2009

Ordered it today, dont think i can handle e-books anymore, so i just got the hard copy. Paid via stars transfer, handy that

Yeah, one of the question I actually have for LA is how he is able to accept Stars/Tilt $$ for the book. Didn't think they allowed people to collect $$ for goods/services as a rule anymore. I'm guessing that it's because he'll play through the $$ unlike the HEM/PT3/etc. developers.

dan · Dec 17, 2009

finished it dont know yet no great revelations must sleep on info they dont have to play if they sell books could be the next title lol

Marginal · Dec 17, 2009

I just got the copy, was constantly refreshing my email for the last 6 hours LOL. Only 206 pages, should be finished by the end of the week.

Marginal · Dec 17, 2009

Wow, this book is really easy to read, could possible be done tonight LOL.

I don't play cash games but I ordered this book last week anyway because it seems to cover a lot of things that would apply to anyone who plays poker. I wanted the hard copy which doesn't start shipping until Dec 18th so I can't read it yet. If you order it now you get an autographed copy. It is $44.95 including shipping and you can pay for it from your one of your poker accounts.

I know ChuckT's has ordered it too -so maybe next month we can get a good discussion going.

I am also trying to con Dusty into an interview as my prize for being the 200th person to order the book lol.

Munchrs - I took the liberty of making an edit to your title.

have you read the book? i only play tournaments too so i was wondering if it would be beneficial. im sure it would be. how did you like it?

Debi · May 9, 2010

Yes I read it and it is beneficial no matter what you play. It is not really a strategy book except for some things at the end. It is more about how you view your poker playing. It is a really good book -you should check it out.

Thanks for the props! I'm glad you enjoyed the book and I hope it helps you crush it at the tables.

akcash · Jun 12, 2010

just ordered TYPLIB. looking forward to reading it!

GiantBuddha · Jun 17, 2010

For anyone who doesn't know, TYPLAB is available in the PokerStars store for like 1900 FPP. I think that's about $30 worth of points (or less if you're not a Supernova), which makes it the only underpriced book in the store.

Once I hit 1900 FPP on PokerStars.. that's what I'll be getting.
