NLHE Ring Game Book Advice?

BigRedAce · #1 03-17-2005, 06:07 PM

Hi All,

I am a fairly accomblished limit hold'em, stud and Omaha player (generally winning quite a bit more than standard hourly rate at the local B&M rooms- playing up to $6/12FK) and have similar skills at NLHE tourneys (I have won several and made the final table at quite a few more including a WPT satellite event). But I seem to lose it when I play NLHE in Vegas ring games (and I have a fairly lousy record online as well).

It may just be that I haven't grown sufficient cajones for cash no-limit, but it may also be I don't understand the game as well as the more mathematical games I am comfortable with.

So my question is, what book is recommended focussing on CASH NLHE games. I already own:

- SS1 and SS2 (not very helpful)
- HFAP
- SSH and WLLH
- TOP
- ...and a variety of tournament books

I don't have Harrington's book, and that's the one I see most recommended but it seems like another tournament book.

Ideas?

SS2 and Ciaffone for ring games.

Also for newbies, I have found Ashley Adams articles at www.thepokerforum.com to be helpful.

Yes. It is expected to be out late summer of 2005 and Mr. Sklansky's co-writing it with Ed Miller. Mr. Miller's latest book, Getting Started in Hold'em (due out around April 1st), will also cover NL ring games.
