That's right Lou,

The proof will be in the pudding.

I had a preliminary glance at your basic stuff and was focusing mainly on your writing style, which is...ok.

It reads very much like a narrative rather than an instructional piece - lots of excess, unnecessary sections that can (and probably should) be streamlined to make the piece of writing more accessible.

New players really like to see hard, focused points - your article was just way too long. You could cover the same amount of instruction in half (or less) words.

I only had a quick glance at it though. When I get a chance, I'll sit down and read the entire document start to finish.

Look forward to seeing your intermediate and advanced stuff - I'm sure you'll be a valuable contributor to any poker forum.

Though we've had some clashes in other topics, i appreciate you reading my stuff and commenting CF. I know the stuff I wrote was kind of loose, thats why I posted it here; for people to tell me whats wrong with it. Any specific sections that you think I could improve? Any tips on how?

I'll let you guys know when i finish the next part, which is about intermediate play.

thanks
