I want to buy a poker book for my girlfriend. She has an understanding of the mechanics of the game, but no more than the vaguest idea of strategy and theory.
I already own a few books, but I'd prefer to actually buy her something rather than lending and I don't think Harrington/Sklansky are appropriate.
Having read the helpful thread in the Golden Archive, I'm tempted to get her "Getting Started in Hold'em" by Ed Miller. However, the games she's been exposed to (and will continue to be exposed to) are both No Limit and Tournaments, and I'm concerned that GSIH is more about limit and cash.
Is this right? Does anyone have any alternative recommendations?
