Mathematics of Poker and what else?
 
I'm thinking about buying Mathematics of Poker (reviews?), and probably another book as well. But I have no idea what else I should have to add to my poker library.

I play $5/$10 NLHE online, FWIW. I also occasionally play MTTs, but I suck at them. Here is what I currently have:

The Poker Player's Bible (lol, first poker book though)
Internet Texas Hold 'em
Ace on the River
Caro's Book of Poker Tells
Super System I
Small Stakes Hold 'em
Poker Wisdom of a Champion
Bobby Baldwin's Winning Poker Secrets
Theory of Poker
Inside the Poker Mind
The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King
Harrington of Hold 'em I
Harrington of Hold 'em II
No-Limit Hold 'em: Theory and Practice
Professional No-Limit Hold 'em

So... what else?

I've read all except for PNL, which I'm halfway through. I also need to re-read HOH I+II, because it's been a while and I don't think I really absorbed it the first time.

Mathematics of Poker is a very heavy book. It's 300 some odd pages, but it's a lot of small text and numbers that hurt my head (I suck at any math beyond basic calc). It has the feel of a college textbook more than an actual poker book which turned me off from it.

I play at the micro stakes. Maybe I'm missing something). It has the feel of a college textbook more than an actual poker book which turned me off from it.

How about Moshman's book for your MTT game and Ciaffone's Pot Limit/No Limit book for your NL game?
