Where is the best place to find a simple explaination on odds (pot, implied, etc) This is the weakest part of my game. I got the simplest of odds but other then that I'm lost. Now keep in mind I'm a product of a North Carolina education and take off a shoe to count to 11. If it's a book or DVD or what ever please let me know.
holdem poker by sklansky for limit
HOH, by harrington for NL tournament
professional hold em by flynn/mehta
if you're really really just starting out, i guess i'd change the first and third recommendation. but if you've played some, those are good places for the math.
Ok thanks, I think I have HOH I'll have to look in my stack of poker books, lol. I think I'm just making it harder then it is. Also I have a DVD by the guy who has the "little green book" can't remember his name. How does that rate if you guys have seen this. I'm a more visual guy then if I try to just read something and try to figure it out. I don't know what are y'alls thoughts.

Phil Gordon that's the guy, he had a DVD out and he went over odds in it. I can't remember the DVD name but you followed him in a set up tourney game and his thoughts on hands in the game. If anybody saw it you can give me your thoughts on the odds section. Plus any other help is also welcome.
JoJo is spot-on here. I have this book and it has been very helpful for me in this regard for playing limit online and B&M (from 2/4 to 4/. It's done in a relatively easy to understand manner, too.
