Re: Good horse books?
I play in every HORSE tourny that I come across (with the exception of the 50k WSOP) so I can relate to this thread. There is no book written for HORSE tournys because its a compilation of 5 different games that require five different skillsets. The recommendations in this thread have mostly been good, but if he already plays the cash games well and he just needs help adjusting his limit game to a tourny format than I recommend two books - and he should read them both.
1st - David Sklansky's Tournament Poker for Advanced Players. There is a lot of fluff that he may already know, but as a whole its a fantastic read - especially the hand samples in the back of the book.
2nd - Full Tilt's tournament book. Its pretty good, a few errors here and there and its not that great for a newbie but if your an experienced tournament player who plays the cash games well then this is a great book to add some subtle nuance to his tournament game.
