Default Re: How many books in your library ?

Well i've only been playing poker about a year now so i don't have that many books yet. Here's my short list:
1 Sklansky on poker
2 Hold'em poker by Sklansky
3 HPFAP by Sklansky & Malmuth
4 The theory of poker by Sklansky
5 Championship No-limit & pot-limit hold'em by Cloutier & McEvoy
and No limit & pot limit poker by Ciaffone & Reuben is on it's way.

Greetings
ARTMAN

Default Re: How many books in your library ?

10 books currently, most I bought in the past few months.

1. Winner's Guide To Texas Hold'em by Ken Warren. First poker book I ever bought. It's terrible terrible terrible.
2. Play Poker Like the Pros by Phil Hullmuth. 2nd poker book I ever read, at this rate it's a wonder I can play at all! I did enjoy reading it, but it's still terrible. Luckily it was a birthday gift. Atleast it got me to play poker more.
3. Hold'em Poker by David Sklansky. GREAT book for beginners.
4. HPFAP - If you don't have it, get it.
5. TOP - Again, if you don't have it, get it.
6. WLLH - Some parts are questionable, but still good for beginners because it's easy to understand.
7. TPFAP - a must have for tournament players.
8. The Complete Book of Hold'em Poker, by Gary Carson. Some recommend this, but I personally don't care for it.
9. Biggest Game in Town by Al Alvarez. (Fiction) Not the best book in the world, but pretty darn interesting.
10. Poker Wisdom of a Champion by Doyle Brunson(Previously titled "According to Doyle"). Nothing spectacular, but a fun easy read. I like Brunson.

Next on my list:
11. Improve Your Poker (if I don't get this for Christmas I'm gonna be real mad)
12. Middle Limit Poker
13. Theory of Gambling
14. Poker Essays I,II,III
15. Inside the Poker Mind
16. Getting the Best of It
17. Positively Fifth Street (Fiction)
18. Big Deal (Fiction)
19. Real Poker, Real Poker II
20. Pot Limit and No Limit Poker
21. Seven-Card Stud: The Complete Course in Winning
22. Seven-Card Stud for Advanced Players
23. The Psychology of Poker
24. Omaha Hold'em Poker
25. High-Low Split Poker
26. Super System

I have about 10, luckily my local library carried a few 'must reads' such as HEFAP and Phil's book, so I did not buy them.

My latest would be: Tao of Poker, nice little $10 book with nearly 300 poker proverbs, good read and bath room book! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
