After Harrington
I've been meaning to get a new poker book to read. I've now only read HOH. I'm mostly interested in NL and tournaments, any suggestions/recommendations? The PNL book looks interesting as it is discussing subjects not covered by HOH...

Re: After Harrington
If you play live poker tournaments/cash games etc then Read'em and Reap is a really quick read and has alot of useful information regarding tells. Should only take you a day or 2 to finish it, reads easy alot more fluid than Caro's book.
If you play sit n gos then Sit 'n Go Strategy is pretty good, just finished reading it last night. Also if you haven't read all of the HoH Books, then u should do that first, HoH 2/3 have a wealth of information that is required for succesful tournament play. |

Re: After Harrington
Ive read all 3 Harrington books. Good stuff. I just want to delve deeper into the theory. Ppl on here seem to be talking much about TOP NLTAP and the new PNL books. Was just wondering which of these are most essential... Thanks for the reply - I'll look into the books you mentioned.

Re: After Harrington
If you mainly play tournaments, Full Tilt has a new book out that is supposed to be pretty good.

Re: After Harrington
I'd recommend 3 books:
1.) No limit Hold'em: Theory and Practice from Sklansky - very good book, but math-intensive. I suppose you have already read Sklansky's Theory of Poker - if not do it first. 2.) Phil Gordon's Little Green Book: Lessons and Teachings in No Limit Texas Hold'em - one of the best books around from an aggressive player - but you should be very firm with the basics from HoH. 3.) The Poker Tournament Formula from Arnold Snyder - but for another reason you might think. basically i don't like snyder's style, further he is not a very good poker player in real life. some of his concepts on position play are good though. the problem with this book is that it teaches a very mechanic approach to position play. and there you can gain a huge bonus against all the folks that play with these guidelines, cause they are quite easy to identify, and afterwards outplaying them is not a big problem. |
