Book reccomendations

I am looking for your opinions on the best books, specifically geared towards hold em. I have read quite a few and am curious as to other people's favorites/opinions. Thanks!
 
Suggest me some mtt e-books

Hi Im a fish trying to learn more about poker. I know the basics and a little about c-betting, playing according to position, odds etc. But now I want to learn everthing there is in the game. I usually play only holdem but I play a little bit of others too. I need some really good books that can help me become a better player and also inspire me in any way. I would prefer reading free ebooks but i dont mind paper or hardbacks too.
Thankyou

Poker the real deal by Phil Gordon

This is a wonderfully written book on Texas holdem. It's got all from the very basics to more complicated play but never goes too in depth. It's hilarious and nice to look at too! Buy it!
 
I would check out phil gordons little (color) books, there are a few of them, little green book, little gold book, little blue book... I think they are very well written, even though I dont think phil gordon is the best poker player in the world, (although he is defintly up there) his books come across very educational and teach alot.
 
Thanks! Actually surprised I haven't heard of these. I will definitely check them out!
 
Checkout Doyle Brunson's Super System. It's basically the poker bible!
 
READ HARRINGTON ON HOLDEM 1 AND 2

These are the best books if you want to go deep in MTTS and i mean go deep every single game unless you get sucked out on of course. These books got me from losing 25K my first two years online to having over 400,000 in profit at the current moment. Harrington has three rules Try Not to play Arag, Dont play out of position, and if you are not sure youre going to win the hand FOLD FOLD FOLD live to fight another hand. I mean there is more to those books than that but those three rules are all you need to become profitable and then go from there with some of his more advanced strategies. He is IMO one of the best MTT players to ever live.
 
Harrington On Holdem vol 1 and 2. Best books i ever read.
 
I'm with TARch, I would never download utorrent and do a search poker ebooks.
 
I recently due to my new membership to the forum realized that my game although not terrible needs a lot of work. I played several years ago and then stopped because of frustration. Looking back I wish I would have simply taken a break and researched the game for awhile then came back. I can only the imagine the player I would be today. But as you can probably tell by this post that was not the case. Any how to make a long story slightly less long I want to do that now I want to take my game to the next level this time. That being said I don't know exactly what level that will be I just want to foster the best poker habits and skills and see where it takes me. I figure it can't hurt this is where the question comes in does any know the best books or online postings with links please regarding tournament play? Thanks for any help anyone can give the more the merrier! Until then I will keep sifting through the infinite wisdom on this site.
 
Phil Gordon's Little Green Book
Harrington on Hold 'Em Volume 1 and 2
Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand at a Time
 
Phil Gordon's Little Green Book was helpful when I was first starting.

At the moment I am reading Collin Moshman's Sit 'N Go Strategy which gives plenty of example hands for you to use to see if the theory is sinking in. This book has helped me a lot when playing final tables.
 
I still advocate forums and articles over entire books.
Facilitates the micro focus on things that you have identified as areas of weakness.
Also I am of the opinion that with books unless you are an intermediate to advanced player you are getting more information than you can practically or efficiently apply at once.
Aside from that start with math oriented basics to not only refresh but potentially inspire you to make a shift in your poker approach.
 
For tournament play, I highly recommend Harrington's books.

Its an intermediate/advance book though.

Click to expand...

I advocate people trying different methods and finding what suits them best, because we are all different. I like reading books (or watching videos) then coming here and asking questions about aspects of them that I'm not sure about.
 
better watch videos or enter poker pages to learn or see the plays poker, said that several professionals who did not read any book ..
 
I started reading the "kill book" today.
So read a bit more I give my opinion

Ps: I also read it "green book"
 
I'm sure this is somewhere else...

Do you have any recommendations when it comes to poker books? What has helped you become a better player?
Any suggestions are appreciated. Preferably the e-book variety and free if at all possible.

Thanks in advance for the help.
 
I would get the book written by Daniel Negreanu he teaches there u can use that probably if u want .
 
I'd say MTT at this point in time, but whatever you recommend for any of the varieties of poker is appreciated.
