Best texts for the truly ignorant

[Prowler]

Hi all, not sure this is the correct place for this post but I figured I'd get the best advice here. My abilities in the field of probability and statistics are very weak. While I was moderately strong (well above average but well below brilliant) in both statistics and algebra when in school it was a quite a while ago and I remember hardly anything. With this in mind what text or texts would you suggest I study to get a very firm grounding in probability theory and its application?

Any advice and help is greatly appreciated, and I do apoligize if this isn't 100% on topic. Thanks in advance!

Check www.probability.go.ro (http://www.probability.go.ro) . I heard next few months they will release a book on probabilities for beginners, with full applications in gambling and poker.
