Default best books for post-flop play?

I've got many holes in my post flop game, and started to work on them some time ago.
This forum's advice on which books are the best to improve the post-flop play would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance

thanks, that's interesting though.
I didn't read it, but one of the reviews at Amazon mentioned that it was not particularly strong on post flop play.
Maybe I should get a copy afterall

The post flop play of small stakes holdem is the best aspect of the book in my opinion. That is the sections that make the book worth the $$$.

Actually, SSH is not particularly strong on preflop play. Not that anything there is wrong, it just doesn't devote a lot of space to preflop compared to other books. It is not the best book for an absolute beginner to learn to play preflop. It assumes that you know how to play preflop and puts most of its emphasis on postflop, because this is where most intermediate players are weak.

I'm not sure if many of the Amazon reviews are in error, or if they are posted by good players trying to get the fish to read Hellmuth, Warren, etc.
