My opinion.. Throw away the book, change ABC to XYZ, and learn to become your own player. Play 74 a few times, call that raise that 5 people have called already with 63. Raise with J10, learn how to play a hand in the shoes of your opponent, learn how to re-raise, learn how to control a table. If you are passionte about the game, learn how to play it for yourself. Understand the fundementals, understand how the vast majority of your opponents will play, then play with different style of play, find your game that way.

Who knows you might turn out to be an ABC player, then you can get the book out of the trash.
