Ok, so I'm sure this has been asked before but I just have to know what is with all the hype when it comes to "Erdnase" and "Expert At The Card Table"? I have a copy (K.C.Cards Co.) as well as the "Annotated" version by "Darwin Ortiz" and I guess I'm missing something because I pick it up try and absorb it's contents and then pick up something like "Card College" or even "Royal Road" for that matter and just feel like "Expert At The Card Table" is antiquated, outdated and bordering obsolete. Now this is only my opinion, (and of course it means nothing) but I am curious as to why we are so fascinated by this person and his book? More importantly, why should I spend time studying it, or why would I want to, when I feel it certainly could be better spent on numerous publications starting with the ones mentioned above?
What is the mystique with this person and his book?
Should I be readying it for other reasons than developing technique and skill with a deck of cards?
What am I missing here?
I'm not trying to be a wise-ass and I truly would like some input and opinions on this because maybe I'm just not readying it for the right reasons and because of that, I am not finding the treasures I so often hear about.
Thanks
