Depends what part of your game you want to improve. If it's tournament play TPAP. If it's poker in general then TOP. I would look to get both at some point though, especially TOP.

Get TOP it is a must have book, a bit dry and techical read, but one of the best poker books ever ... TPFAP is a marginal book

Too bad by the time i had FPP points I already have all these books. If you're ever gonna buy 10 to 20 poker books in the next few years you have to get those two(ToP is rated by many as the best poker book ever, and TPFA is much more than worth its money). And if you have FPP points on PS these two are probably amongst the best books PS offers by far. I'm having to choose between MoneyMaker and McVoy

as for the future, after you pick up a few good books on PS FPP store, (Sklansky, Ed Miller, heard good things about Schoonmaker i'd just save my points for the chipset)
also get the playing cards, they are nice [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Don't waste your points on a poker book. If you need to choose between those two books then your points will be better spent on a t-shirt. At least your friends will think it's cool.

Seriously, you need to read all the top books on poker if you want to take the game seriously. Both of those are must reading, probably TOP first. But if Small Stakes Holdem if offered and you don't have it, make that your first choice.

Hit the bookssssssss dude!
