Re: Help me out here. Books that I should and shouldn\'t buy.

For Stud: 7 Stud for Advanced Players is the only worthwhile book I've read, although there may be a decent book out there for small stakes games that I haven't read.

Full-length book, yeah, although Ashley Adams' book is not a terrible book for beginners, albeit a tad on the weak-tight side. However, I actually got more out of Chip Reese's chapter on Stud in the original _Super System_ than _7CSFAP_, which IMHO is the only non-outdated part of that book that applies to a game that is still widely spread today (Sklansky's chapter on Hi-Lo Split is great, but it applies to Stud Hi-Lo with no qualifier for low...useful to me in my home game since that game is actually among the ones on our list available to choose, but not probably generally useful today as we may be one of the only rotation-system home games that still plays that variation [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ).
