I have virtually no experience whatsoever when it comes to poker strategy, but I really enjoy playing hold 'em in home games..
I know all of the poker 'lingo' and what-not, and I could tell you the difference between some different types of strategies, but I have zero idea how to employ any of them..
So, can anybody recommend the best one or two books for someone in my situation who is interested in getting involved in some lower limit type games??
Categories that I am interested in, and think would be important, are:
Strategy
Etiquette
Tournament vs. Home games
Bank Rolls
This is just a short list of stuff that I really know almost nothing about and am very interested in learning about, but am I missing anything?..
As for myself, I am a younger guy who has a four year BMATH degree.. Would this have any effect on the type of books I should be reading??..
Thanks for any replies...
