Then you own two of the three best NL Hold'em books already. The third is No Limit Hold'em: Theory & Practice.

If you just got started playing, skip No Limit Holdem Theory and Practice. In fact, skip it for life. It's mostly worthless. Little Green Book will be just fine. Theory of Poker is a must read.

Doyle's Super System One. His no-limit section is still the ultimate expression of how no-limit is played at the highest level. You need a deep bankroll, balls, brains and a fearless disregard for your money. It's only within the context of the approach he advocates that the concept of changing gears becomes a weapon--other wise the game all too often tens nits waiting for a live one.

So not true. If you did a search on this forum, you'd find mostly praise given for this book.

The high experience/limit players were not as keen on it due to the fact they had most of the knowledge already and there were some complaints about too much math, but it's definitely a must read for NL in my opinion.

I knew some people would disagree with me. There are some really great players who like this book, so i may be wrong about it. It had Sklansky's mark on it, in that there are numerous poker problems that ask and answer questions that will not usually apply in your actual game, or help you very much. Just like his posts. But, again, i may be wrong.

I just wanted the OP to know that the majority opinion on this forum is that NLHETAP is a must read.

I do understand that not everyone out there is a Sklansky disciple though. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
