In another thread i read that someone recommended a few pokerbooks. I now have one pokerbook and it's an ok book, but not more than ok. It didn't really teach me more than i already knew. I do want to learn more and more about poker and especially about strategies, so who of you actually read/buy pokerbooks, which ones do you recommend and why? And if you know... in what languages are they translated to besides english? My english is fine, but it could maybe be usefull (for me and others) to know this.

i have 3 pokerbooks, i win them in a poker promotion, i win the super system 2, theory of poker and tournament poker for advanced players. the super system dont teach me more then i know, but teach me another plays then the hold em (omaha, stud, lowball) theory of poker teach me how to play poker, but...no too much, its a general poker book. the best for me is tournament poker for advanced players, really teach me how to play in specific situations, and have to many examples. so, i recommend the super system if u wanna learn more pker games, and tournament poker, to play very nice tournaments...
