Books for headsup limit holdem?
 
I've been playing poker for 9 months or so and I only play full ring limit holdem in the 1-2 till 5-10 range. I only play full ring and what I want is a good HU limit holdem strategy/system.

Are there any books that are just about HU limit holdem?

Or could you perhaps recommend me some limitbooks which covers a good HU limit strategy?

Limit Holdem: Winning Shorthanded Strategies includes sections for HU play. Another book, Winning in Tough Holdem Games includes thorough stats for blind stealing and defense as well as excellent sections of heads-up post flop play. You may also want to consider wwww.stoxpoker.com which has excellent HU videos.

Byron Jacobs has a set of DVD's in the Expert Hold'em Series on HU limit.

The section on heads up play in the new D&B shorthanded book by Terry Borer and Lawrence Mak is brief but very good. Byron Jacobs' DVD's are also very good.

I also recommend watching some of the videos over at Stoxpoker of a guy named "TheBryce" who is a heads up limit specialist and plays in the highest games on the net. This guy gives new meaning to the word aggressive!

If only Byron Jacobs wasn't Australian. His voice and appearance have caused me to stop viewing his DVD set after only the first DVD.

Australian...? Wrong by about 12,000 miles. BTW the first DVD isn't much more than an introduction - the more interesting material is on the 2nd and 3rd DVDs.
