Default Re: Tanenbaum or Stox?

His Advanced Strategy book is both a combination of stuff he has written for Card Player (some of which has been reworked) and all new material. The Shorthanded book is written by two Shorthanded experts named Terry Borer and Lawrence Mak with BT acting as a collaborator. To be honest, you could give the Advanced book a miss. It's pretty good but not "essential" however the SH book is a must have for any serious limit hold 'em player. It is the best material available on short handed play. I don't know of anyone yet who has read this book that wasn't highly impressed by it.

qft. i have spent way too much time thinking about SH LHE over the last few years and I was still very impressed with the quality of the SH book. stox's book is great too, but it is really a precursor to Mak and Borer's more in-depth material.
