most relevant 2+2 book for becoming proficient at SNGs?

Adam22 · #1 06-09-2005, 04:33 AM

i've been playing ring games constantly for the past year or so and have come a long way, from micro limits to 5/10. anyways i'd like to begin to learn how to play SNGs profitably to mix in with ring games. any books you reccomend, i'll probably pick up. thanks

Harrington on Hold 'em is probably the most relevant.

Tournament Poker for Advanced Players and Theory of Poker will be useful also.

However, I think the best source of information about SNGs is this forum.

TOP and HOH is great

didnt think HOH applied much to STT's? Thought it was mainly for multitable?

I would imagine HOH2 has a lot more relevance to SNGs.

HOH has many hands from internet SNGs. The most relevant book for SNGs out with vol II coming soon.

HOH is awesome. I'm anxiously awaiting for HOH2 to arrive.

There are a LOT of examples in the book based on STT scenarios. I didn't necessarily agree with every one of them (maybe not based on 8-tabling on the internet), but the whole book really helped my thinking in general on STTs, especially when it comes to the amount of my bets. Definitely worth reading.
