Default First No-Limit Hold em book for ring games?

I have a number of books on limit hold em and poker in general (TOP, SSH, HEPFAP, WLLHE)and have had some success at micro limit hold em ring and tournament games. I would like to expand a little into no-limit hold em, but in all honesty I feel quite lost for the most part in this game. Any suggestions on a good no limit book would be appreciated. I am equally intersted in ring and tournament books on this subject.

P.S. I tried to search the forum, but I had little success. I find this search engine here to be dinosaur like.

Thanks for the help

This is a good question, as I too am interested in suggestions for a good NL ring game book.

[/ QUOTE ]Harrington On Hold'Em, Vol 1, without reservation. It's tournament, but Vol 1 covers early stages, which, I am told, makes it also applicable to cash games. No other book comes close IMHO, and, given the other books you've read, you'll have absolutely no problem understanding it. Compared to most poker books, it is a model of clarity.

Including this book with the first two is wildly misleading. There are like 20 pages in this book that you should read, and you'll never ever have to reference it.

Brunson's section in "Super System."

Reuben's book of pot limit holdem problems. There isn't a lot of difference between pot limi in Europe and no limit in the US for ring games.
