NL Hold'em: Theory and Practice.
 
this book is awesome. I ordered it cuz Mayhem told me it was awesome, and its AwesomeR than he even thought. its by sklansky, so go buy it, im not done yet but its pretty good stuff, and actually about cash games for once, tho it works just as well for tournies.

It is definately the best NLHE book out.

It's sitting on my desk at home, and is currently next on my "To Read" list.

JDMcNugent7 07-30-06 02:58 AM

have u read the other books by sklansky? are they good as well?

Theory of Poker is good, if a little boring. Tournament Poker for Advanced Players is decent. I don't recommend Hold 'Em for Advanced Players because frankly the advice in that book is not very good.

Finally dude. Im actually REreading the whole thing right now, so I absorb most of it. I kinda skimmed the math the first time. It is worth it to make sure you understand the EV calcs down pat.

ya im only on page like 95 but i have been planning on re-reading this book as soon as i finish too.

It is a great book (so far), and like others here, I recommend it to anyone who is serious about NHLE.

I was into it, then I played an MTT and came across a situation I was unsure of. I consulted HOHv2, and now I'm back into that for the time being.
