LGB, IYP and obviously Professional NLHE when it comes. I don't think the others are worth it for you. Just read some of them again after that.

I asked the same question a few weeks ago and got some good responses from people with nice suggestions. I ended up buying all the books I am planning to read eventually. This was cheaper for me, because I had to let it ship to Holland. You have Super System, which is an incredible book. Another book you can start with is Theory of Poker.

so you think watching cardrunners videos would improve my poker skills more than books? can you download the videos and save them or do they only work while you are a member?
