Best book on Limit Hold em

[RiversAreBad]

Best limit holdem books are Internet Texas Holdem by Hilger, Texas Holdem for Advanced Players by Sklansky and Middle-Limit Holdem by Ciaffone. Internet Texas Holdem is probably the best overall, however the other two have some good points in them that reading about would probably be benefitial.

Sorry, I was thinking of a book recommendation as opposed to how much the guy was depositing.

Given he evidently needs guidance on money management, I would suggest Hilger's Internet Texas Hold'Em (for playing suggestions) and Hilger (and Taylor's) The Poker Mindset (for money management).

Theory of Poker would be good. It's no specifically a limit book, but it has a lot of concepts that he would benefit from reading and understanding for any poker game.

allright i will buy internet Texas hold em by Hilger. i hope he will like it and i also hope that this book will improve his limit games in the future.

I think Professional Poker has the best section on bankroll management. He is probably more likely to believe it if he reads it in print than if you just tell him. People are strange in that respect.

Hilger does not have a single original idea
Ciaffone is way to nitty for the modern game (the book is ok)
Skylansky-of course
My favorite beginners book-Weighting the odds in Holdem poker-by King Yao
Leading edge-Stoxs book
its funny how the evolution of the game has made much of the material in early books once profound insite -trivial

[Doc T River]

The game has been around so long, the world has been around so long, perhaps there are no more original ideas.

Small Stakes Hold'em is the best book for...small stakes hold'em.

We need a permanant advisory: the book is about live games.
