Default Re: The order in which I should read the following books

[ QUOTE ]
I would do it like this:

Theory of Poker
Phil Gordon's Little Green Book
HOH 1
HOH 2
No Limit Theory and Practice
Tournament Poker for Advanced


Make sure you really understand Theory of Poker and then especially No-Limit Theory and Practice.

See, I'd recommend it this way:

No Limit Hold 'Em: Theory and Practice
Phil Gordon's Little Green Book
Harrington on Hold 'Em Vol. 1
Harrington on Hold 'Em Vol. 2
The Theory of Poker
Tournament Poker for Advanced Players

NLH:T&P will give you the thoeretical understanding of what you need to consider at various stages of a hand. Little Green Book will show you how Phil Gordon puts those things into practice, while HOH will show you how Action Dan puts those things into practice. TOP is a much more broad poker theory book, and you will want to mull over the various points Dave makes and decide in your own mind how they interact in your chosen game of Tournament NL Hold'em. TPFAP will then expand & reitterate various tournament Hold'em comcepts that you were introduced to in HOH II.

And by the time you finish HOH I you will be well on your way to being a killer cash game player.
