Hey, so I have read a few books on poker and I was just curious if there are any good ones that someone can rocommend?
I have read the super system...I have to say, it is a very outdated type of book. But I did learn a great deal from it when I first started the game.
I dont like games other than nl and pl holdem poker...so most of the book wasnt usefull for me. only a portion of the book is dedicated to holdem.

Can anyone suggest informative holdem books? Thanks!
 
Dan harrington books are good or elements of poker by tommy angelo, the theory of poker david slansky
 
You can also read "BobboFitos-Winning-Strategy-in-No-Limit-Hold-Em"
 
awesome..thanks a lot for the suggestions.. if there are any more ide love to hear em. thanks again
 
Ace on the River by Barry Greenstein. It's a very good book that focus on all the different aspects of poker so, it's good compliment to the strategy heavy poker books out there.

Actually that book it's not about hold'em it's about any type of poker but is a great book anyways
 
So regarding Super/System: A Course in Power Poker*by Doyle Brunson, which book is better to read version 1 or number 2? I downloaded number 2 thinking it was the first version or are they the same book just different editions? Or is number 2 a continuation or the first book?

To my knowledge, there is very little that changed. I wonder if he made the book a little more politically correct--maybe they removed some of the inherently sexist undertones...
Sklansky's book, the theory of poker is excellent.
 
Treat You Poker Like a Business by Dusty Schmidt and The Course by Ed Miller are good reads. Not much as far as starting hands and charts, but both are a good read IMO.
 
a lot of books are outdated such as super system, i haven't read any new books in a while.. or videos last thing i have watched was black rains grinding the micros, i have a lot of catching up to do.. black rains videos was very good, ryan fee's 6 max guide was good, and dan harringtons tournament book i personally feel is outdated
 
Yes!

It was a more primitive game back then, but Genghis Khan had a book. In it, he describes what he'd tell opponents he'd do to them if they beat him. Very insightful and sure to elicit more folds!!!
 
I can advise you to read Dan Harrington "Harrington about hold'em in 3 volumes."

This! That book, especially the Small Ball chapter, has changed my game more than ever and made me a winning player.
