Default Hi/Lo and/or essay books

Starting to fool around with O8 and stud H/L. Need reccomendations on:
- Winning O8 (Tenner/Krieger) versus
- How to Win at Omaha Hi-Low (Cappelletti) versus
- Hi-Lo Split Poker (Zee)

Also, what are your general opinions on:
- Weighing the odds in Hold Em Poker (Yao)
and
- Inside the Poker Mind (Feeney)

Been playing limit hold'em for a while. Looking to expand my mind either into other games or new concepts.

Thx in advance.

Alright having done as much research as I can on Yao and Feeney, I can figure out what to do there.

Can anyone rank the Tenner/Krieger book versus Cappelletti versus Zee for someone who is used to limit hold em and is expanding.

I suck at omaha/8 so take this with a grain of salt. I prefer Tenner/Krieger over Cappelletti.

Ray Zee's book rocks, no question but it is for advanced players and I ain't.

If I may be so bold, I'd just like to mention that Feeney recommends Yao, and Yao recommends Feeney. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Inside the Poker Mind, paid for itself in the first 47 pages.

My rank:

1. Zee and SSII are basically tied
2. Tennner/Krieger
3. Cappalletti...be careful with this book, u need to be in the right type of game to play the way he advocates.

Thank you all for the feedback. The only reason I had been hesitant to buy Inside the Poker Mind is that I was very disappointed in Psychology of Poker.

Fyi, I was also not impressed with POP but definitely would recommend ITPM. I keep telling myself that I will give POP another shot, but it's not a real high priority right now.
