question for you guys

[car ramrod]

I want to spend some of my poker stars FPP's. I have all the books except, Internet Poker by Lou Krieger, and Internet Texas Holdem by Matthew Hilger. Which one should I get.

Also, I don't have Psycology of Poker by Schoonmaker, but I just bought Zen and the Art of Poker, so maybe I don't need another Psycology book.

I'm open for suggestions.

I haven't read the book by Hilger, but I've heard several people say it's pretty decent. I have never heard of the book by Krieger, so my recommendation goes with the Hilger book.

Um, hello, save up for the custom jersey??

I prefer the hilger book, but it's hardly essential.

I enjoyed Matros' book, The Making of a Poker Player. Has some interesting points on Game Theory and bots, plus it's an entertaining read.

Get SSH or Getting Starting in Hold 'em and give it as a gift.

Does anyone know if the WLLH in the Stars store is the latest edition?

I read ITH last year. I recommend it for beginners, but I don't think it will have a lot to offer you. (Based on the quality of your posts in the past.)

Congrats on 1000 posts!

I really liked Schoonmakers book - it helped me understand why fish are fish.
It is a good read even if you then can see that everyone here misuses TAG and LAG. They mean something pretty different then what is now used here.

Schoonmaker is a must - it is insightful, helpful, descriptive and will help your game 1000x more than all the other shortlisted books in the P* store.

Dr Al is also a great guy - he helped me formulate research for my dissertation and invited me to his vegas discussion group.
