These are the ones i have heard of thus far.

HOH 3
Miller and Sklansky's NL book
Ciaffone's NL book
Negreunu's Book
Roy Cooke's Real Poker 3 (RP 4 will be out sometime after that but not sure if it is this year.)
Rolf Slotbloom's book on drawing hands
I have also heard that Raymer has a book coming out, but I'm not exactly sure when that will be.

I think I might have to quit playing poker in order to have time to read all of these /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Rolf Slotboom is coming out with a PLO book this year. This may be the book I look forward to the most.

The new book by Mathew Hilger can be an interesting one:
Texas Hold'em Odds and Probabilities, April/May

WHat about Raymers book? Is that on permanent hiatus? I remember last spring him saying that he was hoping he would have it finished by summer, but have not heard a peep about it since.

Online King : A World Series Poker Champion's Guide to Mastering Internet Poker -- by Scott Fischman (Paperback--June 13, 2006)


Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book : Teachings and Hand Analysis in No Limit Texas Hold'em
by Phil Gordon (Hardcover - October 3, 2006)

The pre order price on each of these books on amazon is about $14.00 each, so I will definitely get both of these. Nice deal.

What is Fischman's book going to be like? I haven't seen a really good book on online poker yet.

I'm not exactly sure what it will be like, but Fischman appears to genuinely want to help other players. If the book is like his Cardplayer articles, it should be a solid book for Internet poker. It is reported to be 256 pages long and published from ESPN.

I vaguely remember hearing of this a few months ago I think but had completely forgotted about it.


Who's the writer? Any other details (some sort of preview or summary available)?

Just the title alone piques my interest.

William Chen and Jarod Ankerman, two RPG game theory maths and poker gurus.

I think one of them is the number #1 on Sklansky's smartest 10 poker players.

Sklansky created a list of the smartest poker players and didn't name himself #1? /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Is this really coming out? He's been saying that it's right around the corner forever. My copy of Pot Limit &amp; No Limit says it is due out in 2004.

I asked him a few months ago.
He said it should be ready this spring and will cover both cash games and tournament play.

Yes, Bill Chen. Also, it's "Jerrod."

He did not consider himself (or Jerrod Ankenmann, among others). The list is at http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/show...o=14&amp;fpart= (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&amp;Board=&amp;Number=1435626&amp;page=0&amp;vi ew=&amp;sb=5&amp;o=14&amp;fpart=)

There are also Sklansky's notes on the list and other comments. If you don't care about those, here is the list by itself.

Ten Smartest Poker Players:

1. William Chen
2. Mark Weitzman
3. Howard Lederer
4. Jim Geary
5. Chris Ferguson
6. Ed Miller
7. Tom Weideman
8. Jimmy Warren
9. Barry Greenstein
10. Paul Phillips

Wasn't it Johnny Chan who said in his interview, that he doesn't want to give out his secrets. He tells them to the players he coaches, but tells them not to reveal them to others. Understandable, but I have my doubts on his book anyway.

How about Helmuth? Anything coming out this year? /images/graemlins/smile.gif

But I'd really like to see Howard Lederer to write something. Any info if he's planning a book?

i play poker and am vastly more intelligent than anyone on sklanksy's list.

it pleases me to see that sklansky has the final arbitration on who is "most intelligent".
