Yes Bobby, the reviews have been great. I'm so appreciative of the support I am receiving regarding this new book. I now have a wonderful endorsement from our own Dr. Bill, and he is helping me secure two more high profile players endorsements. Once I have those endorsements I can go to print. These endorsements need go on the back cover along with Dr. Bill's.

I have decided to hold off offering presales because I want to be certain of the quality of the printing. This is the first time I have used this printing company and I want everything to come out just right before I sell the first book. I hope you all will appreciate this decision.

Bottom line; I expect to have copies in hand and up for sale within two weeks. I think this is a realistic prediction. I will know the price in a few days and as soon as I have a firm date I'll let you know right here, my FB page, and AZB. I'm due a quote from the printer any day now.

Thanks to all,

Tom

Tom Wirth's book is a must read for anyone who appreciates the game of one pocket. Tom's communication skills are among the best, and his knowledge and understanding on positions of value are beyond price. My game has improved for sure and i'm not even half way through the book, thanks Mr. Wirth, you are the voice of reason.

Another endorsement has come through.
This time by Scott Frost;

“Finally, A book on One Pocket I can truly stand behind! Tom Wirth puts the essence of this game into words. “One Pocket: A Game of Controlled Aggression” is a must buy, trust me, no one could have done a better job of presenting what this game is all about.”
Scott Frost

Thanks Scott, and best of luck to you in your match with Alex.
Play with focus, take what the table gives you, and use "controlled aggression".

Damn, son-- you're getting some great endorsements from the tall cotton! Are these endorsements unsolicited? Impressive.

Well Doc, I did ask them to consider endorsing the book, but neither Billy or Scott are paid for their endorsement.

From what they tell me, they simply believe in the product, and I'm elated that they do. I've been working on this book for close to two years now, considering how best to present the material I wish to convey. I've constantly added situations here and there as I found gaps in the information. I conferred with several people during this time span, getting insight and various perspectives from knowledgeable players on the proper shots to illustrate, and how best to respond to those situations.

All in all, it has been a labor of love, but I'm glad it is finished and ready to go to print. I sure hope you all enjoy the reading as much as I have enjoyed the writing. The goal has never changed though. I only wish to encourage new players to learn to love this game as much as I know we here at OP.org do.Thanks all,Tom

Tom Wirth said:

Well, I can now state that I have three of the greatest players/commentators in the game offering their free endorsements for my book;
One Pocket: A Game of Controlled Aggression.

Shannon Daulton has now added his name to this prestigious list.

Here is what he has to say: "This book is a must read for players of all levels looking to improve their One Pocket skills!! By reading this book you can learn 20 years of playing knowledge."

Thanks you, Shannon. The value of your endorsement is beyond measure.

With these three endorsements in my pocket this book is ready to give all others eight to six and the breaks!
