POKER BOOKS

Knowledge gained throught reading standard works on poker never goes in waste. Some of the books are considered poker classics. The numerous Poker books, poker videos, and poker television broadcasts that are now available would surely help you become a better poker player, quicker than was ever possible before! However, do make sure that you buy poker quite basic while others are more technical. It more often than not depends on the author or poker pro who is presenting the material.

Every poker decision you make depends on a theorem. One of the books entitled Theory of Poker by Sklansky describes how to put this theorem into action. The theorem explains bluffing & semi-bluffing, pot odds, implied odds, the free card, slow playing, check-raising, position, reading hands, and heads-up play. The chapters on pot odds, effective odds, and implied odds are very helpful and form the base for any serious poker player. You got to know the math behind the decisions that you should make and this book is the best available for achieving this. A good glossary, index, and basic rules on how to play poker are also found.

Poker Books Recommended
However, the Sklansky books are a usually hard to read. They often adopt a dry, technical approach and stuff a lot of information into a short space. The Sklansky books can be somewhat frightening if you are new to poker, but stick with it, it will be worthwhile in the long run. You need to grasp the raw basics before you can get a little more fancy. On completion of Sklansky’s book you can read something specific to hold'em and advanced playing concepts ... rather like the Harrington on Hold'em books.
