Is the date (thursday/monday) the day to get the book, or have the first reading completed? What is the first reading anyways? |

Volume III would only be useful to me if it were available like 2 months ago. |

I went to a World Cup party yesterday that somehow turned into a poker game (go figure!!), so I didn't get to the planning last night that I had intended. I will post a schedule of readings and such by tonight so people can see where we are going.
A deadline of Thursday for both getting the book and reading a section is probably a bit too ambitious, but we will see. |

It gives you guys time to organize the first few readings and gives time to drag in a few other people who may not have purchased the book yet. Either way I don't think it mattters much. I will not be getting the book until tomorrow, I can always catch up if you start sooner than Monday.
Great idea by the way! |

Any chance we can get a CT discussion of "Poker for Dummies" going? |

And Yeltzen, we all know underneath that crusty, foul-mouthed, ball-kicking exterior lurks a really good player, so I won't even make the obvious response "sure Yeltzen, as long as you lead the discussion as Head Dummy". |

First time posting over here and would join in since I got the book several weeks ago and finally read a few sections. I must say it's really good, just what the doctor ordered. It will make me brush up on my Algebra. I love how Sklansky can make such a wild game mechanical. |
