Re: What book should I buy
If you can fit Theory of Poker in there as well, it's very worth it.
I enjoyed Little Blue Book as well. Same stuff as Little Green Book, but a different approach. They complement each other.

Re: What book should I buy
Small Stakes Hold'em is a great book. It focuses on the limit game though. I thought OP was looking for advice on no-limit.

Re: What book should I buy
"Getting Started in Hold'em" is the one you want. It also has a good section on NL play, stressing short stack play (which is simpler than deep stack).

After as poorly as I played Sunday, you don't want advice from me!
I saw quite a bit of weak-tight, and some "fall in love with top pair" type play. For a while, the table was so tight that almost...

Re: playing scared.
Consider buying in short-stacked at the 2-5 (say your original $200 buyin from 1/2). This will make your decisions easier while you get comfortable with the higher stakes. Check out "Getting Started...

Fighting hyper-agro to your right?
Last night I was playing one of Star's $4 180's.
Now normally, when we get near the bubble, I tend to start a lot of stealing attempts, etc. Sometimes it's worked, sometimes I run into a trouble....

Re: St. Louis: Harrah\'s or Ameristar
And...Harrah's is 'technically' in Maryland Heights. They're both just west of I-270, on I-70. On opposite sides of the Blanchette Bridge. Both on the Mo. River. Both 9-10mi. from Lambert.

Re: Credit, Debit & Giftcards

I've seen "All Access" visa prepaid cards. Do these work anywhere? I'm afraid to try.

Re: Preflop hand values - Some thoughts please
