Perhaps finishing it (including publication and printing) would be a good idea before you continue to spam it all over this site.

Bob Ciaffone's Pot-Limit and No-Limit
Roy Cooke's Real Poker II: The Play of Hands
Chen and Ankenman's Mathematics of Poker

MoP is an absolutely brilliant book. I consider it Theory of Poker II. It *is* tough, but 100% worth it. It does not require any math beyond high-school level Calculus. The most complex math is finding local minima or maxima by setting the first derivative to zero. If you want to know the Allen Cunningham, Chris Ferguson, and Bill Chen kind of poker math, this is where you find it. The push or fold derivation is worth it alone.

Ciaffone's book is old-school cash NL. The only good NL book outside of 2+2 IMHO.

Roy Cooke's book is basically his thought process of hands he's played. They are all limit, but the hand reading examples are worth it for any kind of poker.

FWIW,

Jim
