Full disclosure: I was predisposed to appreciate this book because I’ve been around Ashley and his work a long time. I’m also an honest critic. Even though Ashley is a friend, I couldn’t recommend his book to you unless I really thought it was helpful. And I do. This is a good’un., Tommy Angelo - Professional poker player and author
