Harrington cash books

I was bored and started reading them the other day, and some of the things in there are just plain wrong imo, like a 70x 3bet size, advocating loads of open limping etc.

Why are they held in such high regard for learning cash play?

    each to their own bud.  I have no issue open limping in a 300+BB cash game.

    HoH for tournaments are great books for beginners when i came to reading the cash game ones i already knew a bit and was pretty dissapointed by them i think they are mainly designed for 9handed live games rather than 6max online

    i dont tihnk theyre held in high regard at all are they? the tourney books are but ive never heard anyone say the cash books are a must read. I think Harrington admitted himself thats hes never really played online at all so i doubt they have any decent advice with regards to that.

    his mtt books are well outdated now, if i recall they were geared for intermediate players but i guess they are fine for beginners who need to learn a basic understanding
