Default Re: Good tourney NL holdem book?

I think the new book "No Limit Texas Holdem" by McEvoy and Daugherty is the best. It discusses how to play sepecific hands and specific flops. It is ostensibly for beginners, but anyone can profit from it. McEvoy and Daugherty's book "Championship Satellite Strategy" is also excellent.

Sklanky's tournament book is excellent, but most of it is not on no limit holdem, and Sklanky is mostly a limit cash player.

McEvoy and Cloutier have written several books "No Limit and Pot Limit Holdem", "Tornament Holdem Practice Hands", and McEvoy's "Tournament Poker". They all have good information and are worth reading, but I wouldn't follow all their recommendations. They state a lot of things in the absolute when there are a lot of exceptions. The ones Cloutier is involved in tend to give weak tight advice.
