Default Good SNG Books?

After 541 tournies I'm still struggling with a 9% ROI at the 50s. I feel like I understand the basic ABCs of SNGs. However, it's time I started plugging some leaks and get that number a bit more respectable.

Can anyone recommend a good book for single table SNGs? I know the good books for cash games, but unsure about single table SnGs.

this forum is pretty widely accepted at the best resource for learning sngs.

when you think you have a leak, post about it. with soem hands or something. read other people's posts and respond. that sort of thing.

and on a closing note: 9% ROI at the 50s is not "struggling" in any way.

Harrington on Holdem 1 + 2 are excellent books. The focus is on no limit tournaments sng and mtt.

HOH 1 is really nice for L1-L3 play.

L4-ITM, this forum has the best pushbots on the planet, and I don't think any book is as good as pushbotting as we are.

ITM-HU is pretty standard Short-stack or deep-stack Short-handed poker.

Eh, I don't think you're 'struggling.' If you feel that way, move down to the $33s for a while, until you're sure of yourself.

As Citanul said, this forum is the best resource in the world for SNG play. As far as books go, the typically heavily recommended 2+2 scribes are the best. The God, David Sklansky.
