Matthew,
Ever consider putting your books on tape (CD)? I was 15 hours in the car this weekend and was thinking how nice it would have been to learn something during that time. I can see that the somewhat textbook-like nature of poker books is not a natural fit for this format, but there must be some market for it besides just me. Very Happy

Piemaster's work might be the best fit. Even the newest would be OK, as it is mostly about what goes on in the heads of great players as they play various hands.

Piscivorous has a great radio voice, get him a microphone! Cool

Just a thought.

I've thought about it, but most poker books don't really fit the format. For example, I think most people would have a hard time following a hand analysis discussion since you can't see the stack sizes, cards, board, etc. Maybe The Poker Mindset might fit that format but I suspect that the market would be small. Production and distribution would be an issue also.

As soon as I started reading 'Winning Poker Tournaments...' I found myself crying out for Cyb's hand converter. Probably just familiarity, but that's the format I'm used to for reading hands. An online re-player would also be interesting as a companion to the book. I'm not sure if either are even vaguely practical, but thought I may as well float the idea.
