Limit player wants to learn No Limit
I already have TPFAP, although I admit I haven't given it a through read yet because I haven't played many tournaments.
I'll probably be playing micro no limit tables when I first start out. Ring games, probably very few tournaments. I'm looking for one or two books to help me adjust to no limit. There seems to be a lot of fans of Pot Limit and No Limit Poker by Bob Ciaffone & Stewart Reuben on this site. I'm a little worried that I might need something more basic at first. I have never seen this book in a store so I'm not sure how advanced it is. I did see a new book by Tom McEvoy & Brad Daugherty at a book store recently. I think it's called No Limit Hold'em? Mason gave it a positive review (8), and said it was good for beginners, but didn't really give any other details. What book(s) should I get?

Re: Limit player wants to learn No Limit
There aren't a lot of choices.
The NL section of Brunson's "Super System" helped me, though most of the rest of the book is dated. I did see a new book by Tom McEvoy & Brad Daugherty at a book store recently. I think it's called No Limit Hold'em? Mason gave it a positive review (8), and said it was good for beginners, but didn't really give any other details. I looked through this at the bookstore. It assumes no poker knowledge at all for the first chapter. After that they assume you are a limit player who is just starting out in NL. Given Mason's review, it's probably a good choice for you. Lowest price I've seen is $17.47 + shipping at B&N online. Overstock.com is often best for books but they don't have this one.

But 2 books at Cardplayer.com and they will credit your UB account with 20 bonus dollars. So essentially , you can get another book for free.

Re: Limit player wants to learn No Limit
The Tom McEvoy & Brad Daugherty book is written for tournament play with one chapter at the end on the adjustments to make if playing ring games. It's a good book for limit players wanting to learn no-limit.
Super-System should probably be your next read. After that you can read Ciaffone. Of course the No-Limit forum should be on your reading list as well. Lost Wages
