Poker Books

When you visit Amazon and check for pokerbooks you see an avalanche of poker-literature. If you had to make a choice what would be your top 5 or top 10. I would like to purchase a few books but I find it difficult to choose.

I don't usually say this but there are hundreds of book threads already with recommendations, so try the search function or

Here: https://www.cardschat.com/f49/first-poker-books-86485/

I did that but didn't find much info and the guy in that thread recommends 18 !!! titles. A bit over the top IMO.

there are many helpful online books you can just view them online.

There are a few threads here about recommended books. Do you play tournaments or cash games?

while this thread has popped up, I will ask if anyone has read the "new" daniel negreanu book, i have his first one and have read it like 3 times along with a couple others, but Im really thinking about buying a new book, and since hoh is based on cash games? then I want to see what ppl say about his new one!

Mostly tournaments, I am currently reading Harrington and I like his style, easy to read (a relief comparing to Slansky) and very helpful. I am thinking of buying his two books on cash too and Doyle's SS.

We are going to start a book discussion on HOH vol 1 in a couple of weeks if you want to join us.
