Default Re: ray zee\'s book

Zee's book is very good for both games but I wouldn't recommend it as your only book especially if you are a beginner. Some of the concepts in the book apply to more intermediate/advanced games and may not be entirely appropriate for a loose, low limit game.

For Omaha 8/better and Stud 8/better, the sections in Hellmuth's PPLTP was actually decent. Both sections are well written in SS2 as well.

Zee also recommends Sklansky's section in SS1 for Stud.

I also read Krieger and Tenner's Winning Omaha 8/better book. I thought it was a good beginner/intermediate primer for Omaha. This book though does have a lot of metaphors and cliches which may annoy some readers (one of the reasons why Mason did not like this book).

Other than that, there are not a lot of good sources for Omaha and Stud... Good luck
