Message: [QUOTE="Dorugremon, post: 2818561, member: 94033"] "i was in a bookstore and i found the "theory of poker" by david sklansky and had heard good things about it so i started reading it (didnt buy it of course... ) To my disappointment i realised this book was full of complete and utter BS". With an attitude like this, I can't help you. "...books from old school players like negreanu or the "supersystem" by brunson are terrible". That's like saying that [I]Institutiones Calculi Differentialis[/I] is "terrible" because Leonard Euler is "old school". Calculus hasn't changed one little bit since then, and every other calculus text is a derivative (pun intended) work. Same with NLHE: the game hasn't changed since Brunson wrote [I][I]Super System[/I], [/I]and the same principles apply. Ed Miller's book[I], [I]Small Stakes No Limit Hold 'Em[/I] [/I]and AnHalt's [I][I]Polished Poker[/I] [/I]say essentially the same things as what Brunson wrote in[I] [I]Super System[/I][/I]. The only difference is that Brunson didn't use the latest buzz words: "range", "semibluff", "equity", but he sure did describe the underlying concepts. "i play NL2 at the moment so no matter how much my game is going tobe improved by a poker book it isnt going to be good investment unless i move up in limits (which means a big increase of my bankroll to support it)" Good luck with that, because you'll be playing it forever. Be sure to send in those weekly deposits. "i am mainly looking to get my hands on free poker books that have valuable information in them". No you're not. You're looking for Poker "grimoire" with magic spells that will turn you into Durrrrr over night. And you don't even want to pay for it! [/QUOTE]
