Posted by ILI_002: @oliver: hey oliver, what's your favorite poker book among the plenty of them and how has it improved your game????
Posted by IslandJack: "Every Hand Revealed" by Gus hansen. It's a blast to read. Amazing stuff and pretty funny too. It really opened my eyes.
Wow, I didn't know Gus' book was so good! If you say it is, it probably is... I don't know why, but I always had the impression that Gus is not so good at giving away tips and teaching you stuff, although I know he's a very solid pro (even if he made some terrible moves in this season's High Stakes Poker ). In contrast to Phil Gordon, who seems like he was born to do just that... Sounds cool, I'll just try to find it and download it

He doesn´t really teach you anything, but the book is great! It explains every hand he played to finnally win the Aussie Millions. VERY agressive and imaginitive playing, a bit crazy really.
I´ve said this before on the forum, but the week after reading his book, I played a 5.000 players tourney, and came in 1ST!!! Really, I played it SUPER agressive, seeing something in a lot of flops, never calling, always raising, etc.
It was GREAT!
Can´t play that way anymore. Maybe I should read it again.
Very many people started playing poker lately, counting on the fact that their work until now may be left then, and they may get rich quickly. Sad, that the largest part of these professional players huge fall will be obliged to book. There are few people although very many people play poker people who are players winning really.
Good books: Dan Harrington, Bill Robertie: Moon em competition strategy, second volume: Endgame Dan Harrington, Bill Robertie: Moon em competition strategy, third volume: Collection of examples

Hello everybody!
One of the best books: David Sklansky -The Theory of Poker. This book burns heavy reading, and much poker principle not the today trendy one like that no limit holdemből through bought examples introduces, but we say it fixed limit holdemből, omahából, possibly the 5-card draw játékből buys examples. What all this does not change on the fact that this most useful poker is a book however, from which we may understand the logic of this game really. According to me worthy to be extremely fond.
