Texas Holdem Poker Books-Suggestions

[denverpete]

As a newer participant in Texas Holdem tournaments, I am interested in getting a Book that would help me with All-in holdem tournaments.

If you could recommend 1 strategy book that would be most helpful what would it be?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions,

Harrington on Hold'em Volumes I, II, and III.

They are the very best out there.

Start with Phil Gordon's "Little Green Book." This introduces advanced concepts to beginners. It's very helpful, but eventually you will need to go to the source of these ideas (mostly Sklansky) to get your own interpretation.

When you're ready to read another book, read Dan Harrington's books, at least Vol 1 & 2.

Then read the newest Sklansky book on NLHE tournaments and Sklansky's classic book on Hold'em Theory & Practice. You can get the exact titles off of 2+2.com.

After that, there are many books that are of equal value.

Thanks Guys!

I'll put these books on my list to get on my visit to Barnes & Noble.

Great link.

The Theory of Poker was the Sklansky book title I messed up.

There are lots of books on FL cash games but only a few goods ones on NL tournaments. Some of the better ones are:

1. The three volumes by Harrington
2. "Tournament Poker for Advance Players" by Sklansky
3. Phil Gordon's "little green book" but it is for NL general not just tourney.

Ditto what's already been said. The Harrington on Hold 'em books are awesome.

I recommend reading the NL section of Super System, no matter how outdated or obsolete some people claim it is.
