Re: What THREE books would you recommend to a brand new player....
[ QUOTE ]
I have many friends learning how to play. I currently have them on a 5-book rotation.
1. WLLH - Jones
2. TOP - Sklansky
3. Middle Limit Holdem - Brier and Ciaffone
4. Small Stakes Holdem - Eddie et al.
5. HPFAP - Sklansky & Malmuth
I am *very* comfortable with this progression.

This looks pretty good.
For someone that doesn't take to the game naturally, the key seems to be starting with WLLH, the book is light years ahead of others for beginners. The other important thing is adding SSH somewhere, it has almost all the tools anyone would need to beat most low and mid limit games. HPFAP and TOP are worthwhile, but someone could get by without them.
