Default Re: Good order of books for novice NLH player?

Wow. I totally forgot about Gordon's book. Here is my modified reading list:

1 - No Limit Texas Holdem (beginner series) by Daugherty and McEvoy. Read before and then used as the "bible" for the first 50 mtts.

2 - TOP.

2B - Little Green Book (audio version while driving and playing). TOP and this to be treated as the "bibles" for the next 100 mtts.

3 - HOH I (bible for the next 200 mtts) and HOH II (bible for the next 200 6 player SNGs and 200 heads up SNGs).

4 - Poker Tournament Formula (bible for the next 100 mtts and 100 9 or 10 player sngs).

5 - Professional Nolimit. (bible for 6 weeks worth of deepstack cash games)

6 - NLHTP. (support bible for above during the same time period)

The following books will give her an appreciation and awareness that many styles can make money:

7 - Lindgren's book (leisurely reading)

8 - Brunson's NLH chapter (leisurely reading)

9 - Kill Phil (leisurely reading)

10 - John Feeney's chapter on poker and emotions, and Anthony Robbins' Unlimited Power, and Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning (leisurely reading). Tilt issues should be given importance too.

"Bible" means that the book currently assigned as the bible should be treated like the omnipotent word of God at the moment.
