Poker books

Which books are most useful for online tournament play?
i have read harrington's 1 and 2, I have just bought Sklansky's book, and am getting harrington 3 and snyder 1 and 2 for xmas, can anyone recommend any others for tournament play?

"Winning Poker Tournaments One Hand at a Time" Volume one and Two.

I have read Volume one and need to get Volume two now, I have just got back in to playing tournament so I'm reading one again then I will buy two.

thanks, who is the author?

The authors are Jon Turner, Eric Lynch and Jon Van Fleet

The Raiser's Edge: Tournament-Poker Strategies for Today's Aggressive Game, Bertrand Grospellier
very much depends on style, buyins and if it live or online

Don't bother getting Harrington On Holdem Vol.3 (it's not necessary at all if you've read 1 & 2 & is too outdated imo... although for sure this > reading 1 & 2 will help give you a decent foundation for Tournament play)

Try searching for threads re: poker books (there are ALOT of them)

Yeah Harrington 3 is just problems, you would do just as well reading the Hand History sections here, and listening to the guys who know what they are talking about of course!

Secrets of profesional Tournament Poker by Jonathan Little is very good IMO, the 2nd volume is coming out soon I believe

tournament poker for advanced players - sklansky

Harrington 3 is a workbook. How beneficial you find it to be will depend on a mix of factors such as how you learn best, what you're looking to learn, how well you can appreciate his style (no matter how much or how little yours resembles it), etc.

As for 1 and 2, they espouse a TAG style that still wins if you play it well at low levels. But at higher levels, the play is more aggressive than it was when the books were written, so you have to adapt how he thinks and what he says to the current context.

anyone read anything worthwhile on triple draw or badugi?

These ^ are the best imo.
There's also a 'Vol.3' soon to be released.
