30:08Jim explains the rules of SOHE (also called SHOP) and Dramaha, and talks about ��even crazier�� variants of SOHE.
33:45Jim��s an editor by trade, so in a sense writing and publishing a couple short poker books came naturally. Having all the necessary skills helps, and each of the books got done in just three months.
