Ken Warren's books
Paul Kammen's Winning low limit seven card stud...(as I've recently found out was bad)
Capeletti's Omaha Hi/Lo book
Phil Helmuth's Play poker like the Pros
Any poker DVD...just don't get them!

Read the Appendix of Gambling Theory and other Topics to get Mason Malmuth's overview of many other poker books...

Unfortunately, the first book I ever read on poker was by Ken Warren. At the time, the book seemed great! But after reading some real poker books, I can see why this is the popular opinion.

Just not true. Final Table with Phil Gordon is great and I heard More Secrets by Howard Lederer is also good.

Haven't watched those two...but the three that I have seen in the past have been down right horrible...
So I'm just assuming that most other DVD's are just as bad...

I'm with you. Took me awhile to unlearn Warren's tight, passive style.

I also think PSI is a fascinating display of NLHE SNG play.
