Re: Poker Books
[ QUOTE ]
i read somewhere that real poker 2 was just like real poker 1 with a few additions or something along those lines... is that not true? i liked the second one, i'd get the first one too if it was actually different. [/ QUOTE ] This has been discussed in the books forum. The first book was a collection of Cooke's essays on various topics. The second book is just to supposed to be about play of hands, so it includes all of the play of hands essays from the first book, which is a lot of overlap. The second book (plus the forthcoming third book, etc.) are pretty much meant to replace the original book which is why it is out of print and hard to find. Where/ how did you intend to get a copy? I've tried before with no success. |

Re: Poker Books
bobbyi can you recommend then a good financial planning style book. I've just heard that despite rich dad poor dads small amount of real information it is well presented and teaches essential ideas for someone who probably just sucks at these things generally.

I'm just starting to try to figure it out myself as I now for the first time actually have money to invest; until six months ago, I was just pouring all my money into paying off my car and oodles of student loans. |

Re: Poker Books
An excellent book which will teach you an awful lot about individual stock selection is "How to Make Money in Stocks" by William J. O'Neill, the founder of "Investors Business Daily" newspaper. Much of the conventional wisdom regarding stock selection is incorrect and this book does a good job of clearing up some of the misconceptions at least to an extent. If you are interested in trading, I recommend the three "Market Wizards" books by Jack Schwager which are interviews from the world's greatest traders.
I have been an investment professional (stock broker/commodities broker/investment advisor/insurance agent/etc.) for my entire career and I have studied the financial markets extensively for the last 15 years. Any of you can PM me anytime for all the free investment/financial advice you want. Cartman |
