Re: Harrington on Hold Em V.1 review..what do you think?

Seems like you went into the book with the mindset of "how will this help my on-line low-limit cash-game play?"

This is not the focus of this book. This book sets up basic, conservative TOURNAMENT strategy. Many of the principles are useful for NL cash play (pot odds, hand evaluation, players styles), but this is a primer for tournament play, plain and simple.

A review based on the fact that this was not useful for your low stakes on-line play is not fair criticism.
