I liked Super System 2 NL section. I found Mike Caro's Poker Tells too long winded and self indulgent.

Depends what sort of games you are playing. There's a good earlier thread here. http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=538.0I'd back up redsimons recommendation on that thread of Pot-Limit and No-Limit Poker if you are looking for a CASH game book. Most people recommend the two Harrington books for TOURNAMENT Hold Em. The Ray Zee book is excellent for split pot games. SPAM Alert: I'm an Amazon affiliiate so if you are getting them on Amazon, I'd be eternally grateful if you got them here: http://tinyurl.com/6n3j2 |

Gotta go with the Harrington books as well, well thought out and covers most situations. I think a third volume is coming out soon.

Helmuth doesn't deserve to be on this show. Avoid his books like the plague. |
