I think being able to recommend a book would be prerequsite of making a top 5 list.

In order:

TOP, SSH, HEPFAP, Real Poker II by Roy Cooke, and HOH I.

[jgunnip]

My top 5...well I've only read 5..

1) TOP
2) HOH 1
3) SSHE
4) HEPFAP
5) Psychoogy of Poker

While I think POP gets a bad rap, I really enjoyed it and it has defintely helped my live game play.

Currently reading HOH 2. Also, I plan on reading TPFAP, Ray Zee's Omaha book, and look forward to reading Sklansky's Poker, Gaming, & Life (I skimmed through and read a few articles last time at the book store and enjoyed the ideas in it).
