Hey guys, I realize that's it been a while since I've said anything about the book. That's going to change because it's about to pop off!

I just finished up LeggoCast 7 with Aaron, which was tons of fun trying to get in some words while he yammers on as he does recount some Vegas stories, and talk about the book and some strategy. Speaking of strategy, for those of you who haven't seen the interview yet, here is a link to a fun interview I was lucky enough to get to do at pokercurious.com :http://pokercurious.com/interviews/v...oung-interview. Big ups to Matt, aka Probability, for setting this up and Ross for coming up with some pretty fun and interesting interview questions that really helped me get to the heart of what I'm going for with this book.

As far as kind of a FAQ for the book goes, I'm going to put in everything from all the PMs and emails I've gotten from people who have been keeping up with my progress on the book on LeggoPoker and every else.

1. The length of the book is 11 Chapters of varying length, which come to around 75 pages of 12 point font, single-spaced, Microsoft Word. It's long. It's detailed. I've tried as hard as possible to leave no stone unturned. If one is, my LeggoPoker email is in the book and I encourage readers to email me if they think something is left out.

2. There will be a private forum for book purchasers to discuss ideas and concepts, organize sweats or discussions, etc. From time to time, I'll post more information and elaborations on some ideas as the thoughts occur to me (not meaning that I deliberately left things out of the book, just meaning that I plan on getting better at poker).

3. It costs $2500. I know it's a lot for some of you and some of you are smiling and laughing to see it's only that much. I tried to find a decent middle ground, so if this price excludes you, don't fret. I'm sure way down the road the book will sell for less as the information becomes more public, thus less valueable. For now, I want people who are stuck at 200nl to have the option to afford my book as well as the high stakes player trying to fine tune their game. Don't buy the book if it's going to cripple your roll. If that's the case, it's very likely you'd be much better off watching videos or reading a cheaper and more introductory book that isn't as in-depth. I've had a lot of aspiring 100nl players message me about the book. Just keep plugging away for now guys, it's going to be the best thing for your poker carreer.

4. It's going to be a paper back ~150 page 6"x9" book. The hard back version looked like a high school chemistry text! plus I just like the feel and look more of this set up. It'll be easier to carry around and write in.

5. It's copyrighted with random mispellings.

6. It is officially for sale the moment I get the books mailed to me in Charlotte which should be very very close to the 15th of September; however, I will begin taking serious offers now.

7. For payment, I will be accepting any of the following: PokerStars transfer, Full Tilt Poker transfer, cash money (USDs) and Paypal. If other forms of payment become secure and available, I will make them known here. If you need to make some crazy site-to-site trade to get money for one of the sites I listed, feel free to do so.

8. The table of contents is as follows:

I'm putting the book in the mail to the Library o' Congress tomorrow, getting some lunch with a buddy, doing some packing and then I'm heading up to NYC to terrorize the town with Greg and Phil (philipsaurus on 2p2, sorry if I mispelled that one Phil!). After NYC, I'm off to San Francisco to hang out with Derek, his gf Katie (who will be having a lovely bday party in Napa), and Craigles, aka craigthedeac. There are some awesome climbing gyms in San Fran for which I've purchased some sweet new FiveTens because my other ones have wholes in the toe and I didn't know you could just resole them for $10 instead of getting a new shoe for 100$... meh.

Here are the new kicks:


Here is the car I'm going to try to order tomorrow because they apparently take 6-8 weeks to arrive, which will drive me crazy. Yeah, that's a red interior.


Lastly, check out my facebook fan page and feel free to comment about whatever. I'm basically the redargoe of social networking, so let me know if this doesn't work and I'll talk to someone who is more tech savvy.

That's all for now guys. I'm thinking about writing a philosophy book or pamphlet after The Blue Book is finished. I've had some pretty cool ideas in the past few days. Perhaps because of my sickness? Who knows.

Take care guys. I look forward to your emails (to shootaa@leggopoker.com) or your PMs here!
