Also.

It was #1 in hot new poker releases last night, and #6 in poker bestsellers. (Down to #2 and #18 today, respectively.)

Thanks for all the support, guys.

Because they'll both have their special card protectors free for other uses?

BTW, thanks for the support on 2+2, Jack.

My mind is still kinda blown that Mason Malmuth decided to link my Amazon page. Like, I own several of this guy's books and consider him a top poker author (not to even mention his role in publishing). Now he's expressing support for my book, and I messaged him to thank him, and let him know I'll send him a promo copy—and he actually hit me back with an address to send it to.

Absolutely. Was intended with full sincerity. Very sweet to have Mason in the conversation. I would not be the least bit surprised if the book piqued his interest in the game.

I ordered a second copy to pass around to the local Atlanta degens to get the game some press in the dirty south.

Maybe, i'm actually thinking now, that Chippy might get all "Kanye" when i make my acceptance speech at the SOHE award ceremony.

Nah, I know there's like 29 other people vying for the skunk, so there's like a 50% chance I don't win it (variance is a bitch). I'm cool if I don't win again, for I have seen the mountaintop, and it is glorious!

 

[onerand]

Whoa, this is already out. Off to Amazon I go.

I thought a poker author had to have some ability at the game at issue, but at least Jim can spell SOEH.

So I totally spaced out yesterday and only ordered one of the special card protectors mentioned above. Totally slipped my mind that I'd need two, guess I should have read the book first. So now I don't know whether to use it to cap my Hold'em hand or my Omaha hand. Any suggestions?

Just order another one in a different color silly

Obviously I plan to do that. But in the meantime I'm playing tonight and I don't know where to stick my card protector.

 

[GrumpyCatMalaka]

Every pot I scoop against Jim I'm gonna say "You going to put that in your book?"

I have a suggestion.



(You just teed that one up for me, didn't you?)

Yeah, it was more of a rhetorical softball I threw out there, wasn't sure who would actually take a swing at it

Do @Chippy McChiperson and myself get a special section about beating Jim in the SOHE tourney last year?

Ancient fucking history as far as I'm concerned.

More notable was how effectively @guinness doomswitched me when we got three-handed.

 

[manamongkids]

I'll take the intro and chippy can have the back cover

Okay, let me know when you have the manuscript ready. I have my own publishing company now, you know.

You didn't last any longer than Jim did, you just had like one more chip when I knocked both your asses out at the same time.

Is this the only thing you guys have ever come close to winning in your lives?

Semantics says that means I lasted longer

Sorry I only answer questions that begin with the phrase "Mr. World Champion"

 

[Forty4]

Obviously I plan to do that. But in the meantime I'm playing tonight and I don't know where to stick my card protector.

Hopefully I'm not too late and a) you haven't ordered your second b) these are not completely sold out, but might I recommend visiting a vendor site and ordering two of the following....

Those look like they'd be very uncomfortable for @bentax1978.

He'd manage.

The most important accessory for SOHE: lube.

You know if Harry Chapin's dad had thought like this we wouldn't have a beautiful song like Cat's in the Cradle. You gotta build some bitterness and resentment into your children or else they'll be quite boring. The best solution for this is more gambling and preferably in other states so as to shield your local environment from your debaucherous activities.

This quote wins, hands down.

It was so good that I could not craft a worthy reply.

No chips delivered today, but look what was:

Edited to add: I was wrong, a chip just showed up.

Same here - got my copy an hour ago. I started reading it over my lunch break, despite having not yet played a hand of SOHE. Only noticed a few editing mistakes

It's the only time I've ever been a legitimate World Champion of anything, so yeah.
