★★★★★ Date Added: Monday 14 October, 2024Some very good advice and some interesting handlings, in the first 15 pages. I'm also glad he mentioned the pinky c...t as an alternative technique for a small number of cards. But after that, I found nothing interesting for me, and I think the paragraph on the three-way f...g deck is out of topic. This PDF does not say much about the methods to use if the estimate is not completely accurate. For that, read what Simon Aronson or Michael Close wrote on the estimation. Overall, good complement to other writings on the subject of estimation.
