I can't recommend any. Haven't you brought your own book out yet tikay? Will try to get around to reading the other one though, i like them sort of mysterious but true books thanks. What would you recommend best for me playing in to get more of an insight and feel for things. Been doing quite a few freerolls and a couple of sit and go's and tried the european feeder freeroll as well and came 100 out of a 1000 which i didn't think was too bad, but want to get learning quick and maybe actually try to make some money at this. lolNon-Poker Book - try "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson.
