you will not regret for one minute purchasing 7csfap, it is THE definitive stud book, and oif you have a coherant understanding of TOP, it won't be over your head.

It's a good book, but like all the "For Advanced Players" it's not very applicable to the low-limit games where you should start in gaining experience. (I know it has the obligatory "loose games" section, but that's not much material.) Roy West's book (I forget the title) is good -- but even then I've found I needed some adaptations for the overanted, super-loose Foxwoods $1-3 games. (E.g., a queen limping against an ace doesn't mean a pair of queens; it means the queen is paying a dollar in hopese of hitting lucky cards!)

The Sklansky book won't hurt you or anything -- just, as always, observe the people you're playing against before blindly putting some suggestion into practice.
