Re: TOP or Improve Your Poker?
 

Depends on what you are looking for. IYP is a compilation of the most excellent articles you can find. It is one of my favorite books. And it is not close. A lot of really useful tips.

But, I dont know how to put it... TOP will deeply change your perception of poker. Players who have read TOP and players who didnt do not play at the same game. And believe me, those who have read and understood it have a huge edge. Because the new way they see poker is a more efficient one.

Whereas IYP contains useful tips, TOP really explains the hidden principles on which everything in poker is built.
So do yourself a favor : buy both books. You'll have a great time reading and rereading Ciaffone. And TOP... well, you'll see.

Hope it helped.
