Default Re: My book library/ratings, and what\'s recommended I buy next.

IMO, Zen and the Art of Poker is like the "Bible of Tilt Control." I've read it several times, especially early in my playing days. It has helped teach me discipline, patience, and the perseverance to handle "bad luck swings," which in my experience, may last days, weeks, or even a couple months. Overall, it's a psychological analysis of poker from a far eastern perspective, which makes it unique compared to most other literature on the market which I've read, and know of. I would describe it as 'The Ancient Art of Warfare,' meets general poker theory.
