Default Small Stakes Holdem?

Right now I play 10 NL on stars and am looking for a good book to read to improve my play.. I've always been somewhat interested in learning how to play limit well(Theres no NL ring games at the casinos around here anyway, and I will want to play there when I turn 21). Will reading SSH not only help me become a winning limit player but also improve my NL play (by giving me better understnading of theory, pot odds, implied odds, etc)?

I wasn't sure if I should post this in the micro limit forum or small stakes NL forum, so I posted in both.

As always, feedback is much appreciated [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

um..i don't play NL, but i'm gonna have to say "no". it is great if you want to learn limit, but to understand "universal" concepts to both and all sorts of poker, i'd start with Theory of Poker.

SSH will probably not be the best book to help your NL play, but it's mandatory if you want to play at your local casino. Harrington on Hold'em Vol. 1 and the Theory of Poker are probably the best 2+2 books for NL right now, since Theory and Practice of NLHE is still in the works. The Ciaffone (sp?) book on PL and NL Hold'em is often cited as being pretty good.

I would read

1) Getting Started in Hold Em
2) HOH Vol I
3) Either TOP or SSHE
