MLHE vs Improve your poker

Supern · #1 03-31-2005, 05:21 AM

I have just ordered MLHE and are also interested in "Improve your poker".
Is IYP worth buying if you have MLHE?

Are the books overlapping each other?
I have read some comments about that MLHE uses the ideas from IYP.

I only play Hold'em.

Or just IYP?

are these geared more for limit or no-limit?

They don't overlap at all.

Improve Your Poker is a series of essays kind of similar to Inside the Poker Mind.

Middle Limit Holdem is an instructional book on hold 'em that contains more hand examples than anything else.

Improve your poker is a GREAT book. I have to agree with those who say it's a must read for any serious poker player. Buy it.

By the way, do you play live anywhere in Stockholm? Because I sure would like to play more live poker...

Both books are superb.
