I never understood these posts but anyway I try to reply in a logical way.
1.) Making money from poker is far not as brilliant or easy as you described, poker is a hard work even for the bests, and sadly money is not just popping out of the screen.
2.) Sadly making money from poker is not insanly insightful, if it would be I would be a dollar millionare by now:D You can find hundreds of forums, books, newspapers, magazines and all sort of stuff where you can get insight into poker. A lot of them is trash but if you read everything and put in the hard work you can put it together. That leads to point 3.
3.) The information about poker is already sold. You can only compete in taking out the best informations put together in a book to the market.
4.) Why would the authors sell a book what helps people to beat them? Because thy know reading a book is dosen't enough reading it 100 times and practicing 8 hours a day what you read means commitment and a lot of people who buy the book will not commit himself that much. And those who do finally would figure these things out themselfs maybe it would take 10 years but here is when books comes into picture. They help hard working people to get there where they want to get faster.
5.) Dont think selling a book for 100$ is that much worse compared to playing poker, you don't have to sell a lot to get nice big figures. Having said that I don't think the authors wrote this book based on monetary reasons. Once Edmund Hillary get to the top of the Mount Everest a journalist asked him why did he did it he said -Because it's there-, what I want to get out of this is that I think they wanted to write the best poker book what helps the people the most. And you come here and say it worth shit is not gentle nor wise. Read the book than say “I think it dosen't worth $100″.
6.) You are not more clever than those who lose thousands of dollars on poker or in casinos, if you would be you would read the book than say something about it, I recommend you the 64 squares topic of the book.
