Poker Book (No Limit Hold'em Theory and Practice by David Sklansky and Ed Miller)
8:23 PM
This book is heavy going and certainly geared towards intermediate players looking to become more expert in their approach to cash games, rather than tournaments. Although No Limit Hold'em Theory and Practice is'nt marketed as a cash game book, the concepts and strategies discussed indicate that cash game players will benefit the most from reading it. Novice players will definitely find this tough to read, but also hugely beneficial as an eye opener into the mental minefield that will need to be overcome if they are to reach the higher levels of the game. As Sklansky puts it himself "This is not a recipe book. We don't tell you what to do if you have top pair and your opponent bets. We tell you what factors you should consider when you make your decisions. We teach you how excellent players think about the game". Having read this book over and over, I highly recommend using it as a reference book for cash game players at all limits.
