Just finished 4 poker books... what to read next...?

Hey all. Just finished reading Harrington on Hold'em vol 1 and 2, Phil Gordons little green book, and David S.'s The Theory of Poker. Wondering what i should go pick up next. any suggestions?

What kinds of games you play would be helpful for suggestions.

haha, sorry, i thought the books i had read were kinda all along the same route. Im mostly interested in hold'em. Books on cash games rather then tourneys, but seems like most books i've found are on tourneys, which i don't really mind.
So all in all, advanced hold'em books in general is what im lookin for not really too interested in other poker games.

here is a link you might find useful

First Poker Books - Poker Forums

also

Online Poker Guide > Poker Books

thanx, i heard harringtons vol 3 was a waste of $. still want to check it out eventually though since i read the first 2

Full Tilt Poker Strategy Guide and of course Doyles Super System.

Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book is worth a read - it puts the theory of the Little Green Book into practice with loads of hand analysis, and about half of it focuses on cash games.

The Killer Poker books by Vorhaus also come highly recommended.

You might consider the mathematics of poker.

It is the only poker book that I like. Harrington simplifies poker to much, so I dont like his books. Mathematics of poker does not simplifies things and say it the right way.

It is not the math that is important in this book, it is that you understand what the book is trying to learn you.

THis book helps you with especially cash games. But also any other poker game you will come across.

if you liked the harrington books then i would say harrington on cash vol 1 and 2, especially at anything 25nl and up. gives more analysis of cash situations where stacking with tptk against anyone other than a complete fish is not a smart move.

also covers deepstack play which tourneys usually dont have. i just finished vol 1 and learned alot, about to buy vol 2 on friday.

harrington's vol 3 was not a waste at all...in fact, I got more out of that then the first two b/c its puts vol 1 and vol 2 in excellent perspective by actually doing problems and figuring plays out. you're not just reading, you're doing. maybe i learn better by doing and that's why i liked it...i dunno good stuff.

any sklansky book is good...there's a few to choose from

try Gus Hansen-EVERY HAND REVEALED
just finished it.he takes you through ever hand he played on his way to winning the Aussie Millions tournament.(329) hands to be exact,lol.some really great insight,i'd say a must read.

Just read throguh "Super System" and it had alot of interesting insights i never thought about. the fundamental strategy is simular to most other books, but his aggressive style is very interesting. For a book written in 1978 it still has alot of relevant info.

Dunno whats next tho, probably another one of gordons books.

I too am learning alot from Harringtons books on Cash games. However, I find that it is totally messing w my tourney play. There are quite a few differences between the two and the Cash strategies aren't coming to me intuitively.
Any suggestions on making the adjustments??

For tourney play check out "Kill Everyone". It's a good read after you are done with the HoH tourney books.

A book that just came out recently that i am finding interesting, because I like seeing peoples thought processes during hands, is "Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand at a Time". Pearljammer, Rizen, and Apestyles go over hands that they have played seperately, then at the end the 3 go over a set of the same hands and show how each of them would play it.

I'm not a big cash game player...but I did like Ed Millers "Small Stakes Holdem", if you play limit that is.

I think Phil Helmuth's book has a lot of good info

i ended up getting harrington on cash and im loving it!

Greenstein's Ace on The River is good for things like BR management and the other things tha aren't mentioned in most theory books. But I'd say just read the 2+2 poker forums, they have all relevant information on every game if you dig in there deep enough, and it's free.

How about lets take a break from all the strategy, BR management, tip books and go for The Professor, The Banker, & The Suicide King: Inside The Richest Poker Game of All Time.

A very great read!

I heard that was great, Andy Beal himself is a fascinating person. I really want to get my hands on a copy but I haven't been motivated enough to.

I'd thoroughly recommend Ace on the River for anyone considering making a career out of poker, as Barry seems to be very honest about how the poker world really works.

That, and any book that has a chapter titled "Poker and your sexuality" has gotta be worth a look

It is an absolutely awesome read! Go on ebay or something!

Professional No-Limit Hold'em by Matt Flynn, Sunny Mehta, and Ed Miller

and

No-Limit Hold'em : Theory and Practice by David Sklansky

I haven't heard how good it is but I'm going to read Negreanu's new book.

overall sentiment seems to be that the section written by negreanu is excellent, and those by his contributors are some pretty decent, some lackluster. most think it's worth it for negreanu's section alone

add Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book to the list of ones you should have in your library...he breaks down hands in different game situations, much like harrington does.

the green book was ok, but very basic. great for a beginner player but not for everyone.
