Good Books For Winning In No-Limit Holdem Cash Games

PokerProdigy · #1 09-23-2005, 03:53 PM

If someone wants to become a really good NLHE cash game player, then what books (or articles) should they read?

P.S. I am posting this in the NLHE (small stakes) forum also, since it is relevant.

I heard that Harrington on Holdem Vol. 1 is great for NL cash games. Although it focuses on Tournament play, i hear alot of the concepts can easily be applied to NL cash games.

Also, in Miller's GSHE, he lists HOH1 as further reading to the no limit section in his book.

I was going to say this question has been asked & answered about three trillion times, but since you put the heart in front of the thread I'll let it go.

I was just telling someone that the other day. I've lost my edge lately.

They're all secret and I'm not telling.

Dag, that's cold.

Brunson's NL Hold 'em chapter of Super/System 1 & 2 are very informative (they'll put you in the mood for winning), and HOH1's advice translates very well to cash games. Honestly, I believe all you need is an understanding of limit Hold 'em, then master the comcepts of implied pot odds, and maximum pressure. You know what? Just read Super/System 1 or 2. I hope I was of help.

Ciaffone's works are also pretty good.

Tell the moderator to make a catch-all "What book should I read?" sticky.
