I was browsing the games section at Books-A-Million today on my first day of vacation (thank the creator) and was surprised to see how many poker-related books that I had never heard of were on the shelves. The card gaming section is really not very big but what was kind of odd is that none of the titles I saw were 2+2 or any the other of what I think of as 'quality' books on poker (the Lee Jones book for example).
Of those that looked most promising after a quick scan:
Thursday Night Poker by Peter O. Steiner
Starting Out in Poker by Stewart Rubin (I have the Ciaffone/Rubin NL/PL book which I really like)
Ken Warren Teaches Texas Holdem (I read the first Ken Warren book and didn't think too much of it but this looks to be better)
I'm also curious about Silberstang. He has about 3 books on poker, in addition to a number of other gambling related books, and though I only skimmed through them they didn't seem to have much in the way of valuable information.
Any opinions on the above titles/authors?
