Default Re: Good horse books?

If you wanted to be an extra good friend and buy him a couple books, the following will cover the basics for low limit HORSE games more or less:

Seven Card Stud for Advanced Players
High Low Split Poker for Advanced Players
Small Stakes Hold'em
Sklansky on Poker

This is assuming he has a general idea of how poker tournaments in general are played.

I'm reading the FT tourney book and it's actually pretty decent for the purpose but obviously a little limited since it's scope is so wide.

The high-low book is the best in my opinion, and it covers two HORSE games that a large number of players aren't particularly good at. It's so good I think that if you can only get him 1 book, you might be best going with this one. Yes, it only covers 2 of the games in HORSE, but it's pretty thorough.
