If you're reading a poker book, what book are you currently reading or aiming to read very soon?

I'm almost done with Super System Volume 1. I'm in the Limit Hold em section.

Just received "No Limit Hold 'Em - Theory and Practise" (the new Sklansky/Miller book) in the mail today, so was going to get started on that.

I just started Erick Lindgren's "World Poker Tour: Making The Final Table." A friend loaned me that one and "The Book of Bluffs" as recommended reading over the weekend.

Sklansky's "Theory of Poker" and "Small Stakes Hold 'Em" as well as Phil Hellmuth's book are on the way via an eBay purchase, and I ordered Mike Caro's "Book of Poker tells" and Dan Harrington's "Harrington on Hold 'Em Volume III" from Amazon yesterday. My reading queue will be full for quite some time.

Right now I'm reading "Killer poker online" by Vorhaus. So far, the first 50 pages is beginner stuff and I've read some poor reviews about the book, so I might be dumping it early and starting "Harrington II".

I totally agree on the Harrington on Hold'em series.. I've read alot of books since I started playing about 8 months ago.. Harrington's series is by far the best I've read yet.. I was surprised at his approach to the game given his "tight" image.. As I said to a buddy the other day he helped me realize that Ace Jack is not a monster hand so stop over playing it.. I liked his theories on when to steal blinds and which players to attack when you are the near the bubble.. Great read and I recommend it to everyone..

I was reading Helmuths play poker like the pros but it should be called play poker like a moron!The book is a waste of time and its stuff that beginners should already know . Good thing it only cost me 29 cent :D . I am going to get Doyle's SS or Theory of poker as soon as I have enough partypoints from Partypoker. I also want to know about that new book that Paulsson mentions , I had heard that was coming out and I need a good book just on NL holdem.
