Default No-Limit Hold\'em Books

I've read T.J. and Toms book and I'm in the process of reading Harrington's. I enjoy reading these books and drawing my own conclusions and ideas from them. Are there any other good no-limit hold'em books that someone could recommend? thank you, Bones

In my opinion TJ's book is way too tight for modern games, especially tournaments with most blind structures in use these days. Super System is interesting, but a bit out of date to some extent. I think Harrington's book is the best no limit book I've ever read, but Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hanson and Barry Goldstein are all supposedly coming out with books fairly soon...

Gus will have the shortest book ever written:

Chapter One:
Play everything like aces

Chapter Two:
Get lucky

Chapter Three:
Win

Yeah, I'm sure he lucked into becomming a world class backgammon player too, and no doubt winning three WPT finals, PSI, and making the final table of another one is pure random chance too. I'm sure the fourth section, on using math to analyze hands, will be ridiculous since Gus obviously can't count to 10. And forget that both Barry Goldstein, Deniel Negreanu and others consider Gus one of the top tournament players in the world (and Harrington mentioned Gus as a good player in his book too). What does any of that mean?

Get either "Ken Warren Teaches No Limit Texas Hold'em" by Ken Warren or "Winning No Limit Hold'em" by Lee Jones.
