Re: Is there any book that addresses the typical 1/2 NL game?
[ QUOTE ]
No one who plays 1/2 NL could write a book worth reading. Stick to Sklansky/Miller, Brunson, Reuben/Ciaffone, and Harrington. Figure out yourself what adjustments to make for loose low stakes games.

Honestly, I this reading SSHE and figuring out what adjustments to make for no-limit might be more useful. All of these books seem to seriously lack information about how to play 7- or 8-way pots. And you never see hands like "UTG raises 10x the big blind; three players call." I've heard it said that the blinds are basically irrelevant in 1/2 NL; the game would play almost exactly the same if no one had to post a blind. I think these game conditions run contrary to the foundation of much poker literature, which sees the game as a fight over the antes.
