Default Re: 2000 pages in 5 weeks

Following these books in order should work well in terms of progression and variety.

Theory of Poker
Small Stakes Hold 'em
Bobby Baldwin's Winning Poker Secrets
Harrington II
Professor, Banker, Suicide King *
PNL
Barry G's book

That should put you at 2000 pages.

* Of course this isn't a strategy book, but I think it has a ton of value. Plus, it breaks up your reading. If this wouldn't be allowed I'd sub Harrington III I guess.

Now that I think of it, I do think you should take other posters' concerns with regard to retention into account. And as stated, your subsequent application of what you've digested may suffer if you're only tackling poker textbooks. I'd even consider increasing the number of total pages in your arrangement if you could include poker "literature" like Positively Fifth Street, Take Me To The River and Brandon Adams book.

If you're able to use such books within your initial framework, I urge you to do so. It'll also then be a breeze.
