Poker Books - Five of the Best for Big Poker Profits!
Poker is fun, exciting and appears deceptively simple; so many
players just jump in, play, and promptly lose their bankroll. If
you are new to poker or even an experienced player, we feel that
reading and learning from these poker books can give you an edge
in your quest for big poker profits.
Here are our five essential poker books in no particular order:
1. Poker for Dummies - Richard D. Harroch, Lou Krieger
Poker for Dummies covers the basics: Rules, strategies such as
slow playing, pot odds and bluffing.
The book is aimed at novice players and is a great place to
start.
Even if you're a poker pro, you can still learn something new.
There are also great anecdotes from professional players such as
Stu Unger and T.J. Cloutier.
2. Theory of Poker: A Professional Poker Player Teaches You How
to Think Like One - David Sklansky
This book may not be the easiest to read but it's packed with
useful information.
Everything is covered, with great insight into the art of
bluffing, slow playing, position play, the free card the art of
deception and much more.
A true poker book classic.
3. The Psychology of Poker - Alan Schoonmaker
As the title suggests, this book focuses on the psychological
aspects of poker rather than providing technical strategy.
Rather than looking at how to play your cards, the focus is on
how to play your opponents.
All of Schoonmaker's research was conducted by studying live
games, and his advice reflects this.
If you play primarily online, some of the information in this
book won't be useful. However, as a player's winning psychology
is the one thing that separates the truly great poker players
from the rest, then this is one of the best books on the subject.
4. Play Poker Like the Pros - Phil Hellmuth
Phil Hellmuth, Jr., a seven-time World Champion of Poker,
presents his tournament-tested strategies to beat all types of
player, including:
The Jackal, (crazy and unpredictable)
The Elephant, (plays too many hands)
The Mouse, (plays very conservatively)
The Lion, (skilled and tough to beat)
'Play Poker Like the Pros', begins by laying out the rules and
set-up of each game. It then moves on to easy-to-follow basic
and advanced strategies.
Hellmuth teaches exactly which hands to play, when to bluff,
when to raise, and when to fold.
5. Read 'em and Weep: A Bedside Poker Companion - John
Stravinsky
A great book all players will enjoy.
This book contains insights from some of the great poker players
such as David Mamet, Anthony Holden, Jesse May, and John Updike.
In total, there are 39 authors. It reads easily and will get you
excited about playing poker.
Entertaining, informative, and a great read, allowing you share
the knowledge of some of the true poker greats.
Poker Books - Applying What You have Read
To be a successful poker player requires knowledge, the correct
psychology, and the will to win.
You can however, only learn so much from books; it is experience
that will make you a great player.
Reading about when to fold or raise with a big pot on the table
is easy, but becomes much more difficult when you're in the
situation!
It is the combination of knowledge plus experience that will
make you a great player.
