Good Bad Ugly Quiz from SSNLHE Book
Is there any interest in discussing this section of the 2+2 book? I know the NVG announcement thread quickly cratered over the five example hands in the posted Introduction.
For instance, Quiz Question 1 IÂ’d sure like to know how that pot got to $80 on the turn headup in a presumed $1-3 game, but I also understand the point David & Mason are trying to illustrate.
One difficulty I have always had with otherwise excellent 2+2 books is many of the sample hands seem unlikely to occur in the games I play in, in contrast to the late Bob CiaffoneÂ’s books.
I posted this here because I think it will get far more (cogent) replies than anywhere else, but move delete if necessary.
Owning & having read the book probably helpful.

In our books, when illustrating a concept, we like to give examples that are slam dunks so that it'll be completely clear to you what we are saying. When you're playing in a game, the situations that come up may not be as straight forward as some of our examples. But because of the way we write it, the actual concept in question and how to proceed from there should hopefully be evident.

Very fair, though to me at least that was a very jarring example that affected my thoughts, though again I understand the concept.
