In all seriousness, and I kind of feel weird asking this, but is this a legit strat/instructional book? I would love to read up on this if it is. Some day I want to attend the BBOTB (I'm right here in MA) but I don't know shit other than HE which does not bode well for meet ups.

That's a legit question (especially because the quote on the back is a little funny), and yes, it is an actual strategy book for SOHE.

You will want to learn some PLO, however, before you dig into this book. I do not review many fundamental PLO concepts; it is assumed that the reader is already a student of both Hold'em and PLO.

 

[Chippy McChiperson]

I think you should have named the book "How to get a SOHE Championship Trophy (if you can't win it, steal it)"

 

[Chicken Rob]

@Jimulacrum, save me a copy to buy to add to the prize pool for the WCoSOHE.

I love that you wrote this book.

Save me another copy to buy for my bookshelf.

 

[Mr Tree]

I do believe I need to pick one of these up as a first out prize for Slisk's SOHE tournament.

 

[iBetOnEverything]

Wow Jim, I didn't really think you were writing a book. Thought it was just a meme for the lols. The first hand you fold to me I'll buy a copy on the spot!!

I'll just leave this here....

Fuck I can see what's coming down the pipeline from Rungood Publishing now. Gonna be a good year.

What? No chapter on All-Sweat-Everything™ angle-shooters and how to avoid them?

 

[pltrgyst]

Available on Amazon as of Feb. 27...no Kindle version, though. Might that be coming?

 

[MikesDad]

The SOHE World Champ will autograph copies for free at BBotB if they arrive in time.

Even though that's not your picture on the back cover? That's very big of you

Right. I'm charging $10 to sign the pic. Jim. I'll try to score one from you at the meatup

 

[bivey]

This could be the biggest pile of bullshit evah and I'd still buy a copy for the giggles.

Prime means I'll have it in hand by this weekend.

 

[upNdown]

Prime means I'll have it in hand by this weekend.

Me too. But what does it say about what kind of dickhead I am, that I'll donk off $15 in a nightly pokerstars game without a second thought, but it took me almost 24 hours to justify dropping $20 on a paperback?
Good work Jim, glad to support you. But it better be good!

I do believe I need to pick one of these up as a first out prize for Slisk's SOHE tournament.

Excellent, but might be better as a 'first out' prize in lieu of a rock. The tourney winner prolly has it down already (or is just really lucky, aka Chippy).

EDIT: doh, misread your post as "first prize" not "first out prize" Carry on.

BG I'll play you SOHE headz up for rollz any time buddy. Then you can tell me how lucky I am.

 

[BGinGA]

In my experience, true champions know their true worth and have no need to brag or intimidate. It is the wannabes who continuously feel the need for hot air reminders. Pick your poison, sir.

 

[Chippy McChiperson]

Just asked if you want to play heads up, I didn't mean that to be intimidating, although i guess it must be. It's hard to put myself in the peon's shoes.

 

[Chicken Rob]

I think the idea of the book going to the first out instead of the winner is awesome, and I will change my plan for the BBotB SOHE WC event to include it with the rock.

 

[bergs]

I'm getting one and want everyone at the meat-up to sign it. It's like a degenerate version of your high school yearbook.

Well that changes my plans too - I was going to buy one, but I will now I will probably just win one at the BBOTB

I do plan to release a Kindle version, but I'll need to learn all about ebook publishing and do a whole new review process to make it happen. I don't know if it will be available before BBOTB.

 

[kirchhausen]

I can't wait to see @Chippy bust out first and have to autograph his own copy.

ill autograph kindles too. Still 10 bucks

 

[Rhodeman77]

Self publishing on Kindle is pretty simple and it pays well.

My wife is a writer and has a few self published books for Kindle on Amazon.

The best part is the pay rate. If the book is listed for $3 or more the author gets about 2/3 (I can't recall the exact amount right now) and Amazon gets 1/3.

Considering with her other publishing company she got about 10% it is a great deal.

She makes the same amount selling $3 E books as she does when one of her $20 books sells from the publishing company.

 

[Chicken Rob]

Can anyone remind me of the first 2 SOHE WCs?

Was it @JoseRijo and then Rachel, or Rachel and then Jose?

I hope Chippy busts to one of the OG WCs.

 

[bergs]

JoseRijo, then Rachel, than Chippy.

 

[Chicken Rob]

I hope Jose takes out chippy then. I miss the good old days of Jose gloating compared to chippy gloating.
