Default Help me pick my next book

Hi to all!!
I am currently specializing in limit ring game type(10 players). I read: Small stakes hold em, winning low limit hold em, limit hold em hand by hand, internet texas hold em, hold em poker for advanced players, middle limit holdem poker, and how good is your limit hold em. Can anyone recommend reading something that is good for limit hold em for ring games?

You pretty much got it covered. I'd add Winning in Tough Hold'em Games by Nick Grudzien and Geoff Herzog and Weighing the Odds in Limit Hold'em by King Yao.

Both good. And kudos to Jane for her initial reading list. All good stuff.

If I were to recommend just one book, it would be Real Poker II: The Play of Hands. Roy is a limit hold'em monster, and this book really takes you inside his head for a look at his street-by-street thought process of many very interesting hands. This is a book you will read over and over, and it will help your game each time you do.

However, anyone who knows me knows I never recommend just one book:

Hold'em on the Come, although it might be a little basic considering what you've already read. Still good, though.

Improve Your Poker by Caffione, my all-time favorite poker book.

Inside the Poker Mind, good stuff for a limit hold'em player.

Mason's Essays I-III, lots of forgotten gold here.

Theory of Poker, of course.

And then there's the DVDs:

Ed's DVDs

David Fromm's 6-max limit DVDs

Byron Jacob's head's up limit DVDs

All good stuff.

Good reading list. Add
- Winning in Tough Holdem Games
- Real Poker II: Play of Hands
- The Poker Mindset

I have Inside the Poker Mind and can't recall a lot about it in detail, but I remember thinking it's decent.
