ROFL, man you totally crack me up. I Haven't read the Sklansky book, but I have read all three volumes of Poker Essays and I highly recommend them. Quality content throughout all three.

If I wanted to be a heart surgeon, I would pick Poker Essays volume II. Yes, definitely that one.

Okay. That wasn't too hard. Now for a much harder question: If you wanted to be a Japanese chef, which book would you pick?

I know. It's a tough one.

Even if you could only get one, I still recommend all four.

I ask this because I can get one of the following 4 books (the other ones I can get I already have). Ray, I find it ironic you posted first. I just purchased your Hi-Low Split book for Advanced Players when browsing at the local Casino Store. I didn't even know you posted until afterward. Thanks in advance!

if you play poker above micro limits for more than 5-6 hours this month, than you can afford all four.

if you can't afford all four after playing 5-6 hours this month, then you need all 4 even more..

cheers..

it'll make sense later..
