poker books?????????????/?
i have $80 dollars in barnes and noble gift cards.
im 16 years old. male.
i want to buy some books on poker. me and my friends play once or twice a week, just small $10 buy in tournaments with usually like 7-9 people. i also play online on Full Tilt, for micro stakes.
i have downloaded on my computer some books but they are a hassle to read. i know that super system*, super system 2*, theory of poker*, poker for the advanced player*, and phil gordons little green and blue books are all good, but i dont know what to get.
***** i have these books on my computer but when i try to read them i get distracted so i feel like i should buy them
i will be ordering my books from barnes and noble.com
also, i dont want to spend all of my money on poker books?
what else would you recommend for a 16 year old that doesnt exactly love to read.
oh i forgot. should i read super system 1 and 2 or does 2 cover both books?
is there any benefit of reading both?
wtf nobody ever answers
Yes, we do answer...
David Sklansky (Theory of Poker and the "Advanced Player" series) may be one of the most boring authors you'd ever want to read. It's like reading textbooks. Great information but also good stuff to fall asleep by. Super System 1 and 2 are good books but pretty advanced. Again, pretty boring stuff. SS2 is not nearly as good as the original, but it covers more of the games that are played now. 5 card stud and draw are almost gone from regular poker play.
Here are a couple of good "starter" books that are also good reads:
For a good read and good information as well I recommend anything by Mike Caro. He's a funny guy and writes in a very entertaining style. Easy reads that still have good information.
Another good author is Lou Kreiger. (Poker for Dummies, HoldEm Excellence.) Don't be put off by a "Dummies" book, it has good information in it. Again, also very readable. HoldEm Excellence is told entirely as a narrative so it's not just throwing stats and strategy at you. Also the "Start Chart" at the end of the book is the best starting hand reference you'll ever find.
Finally try anything by TJ Cloutier and Tom McEvoy. Their books have a lot of anecdotes, the writing is relaxed and the information is first rate.
You have some great poker books in your library, they're just a little ahead of where you are as a player. Try some of these authors but definitely hold on to what you've got until you're "ready" for them.
Tips to Win at Poker
Poker is one of the best loved online casino games, and it's still pretty popular in person, too. Most people learn it as their first card game. It's the one that most people play when they get together for a fun game. That means a lot of people would like to know how to win at poker, and whether there's anything they can do to tip the balance. Let's look at how you can win at poker a little more often.
Don't play too many hands! Beginners frequently fall into this trap, especially when they're playing at online casinos. The best poker players play a fifth to a third of their starting hands.
Knowing when to fold is an important skill in poker and will let you hold onto your money longer. Concentrate on starting hands that have higher value and know when to bow out. Betting more or betting no matter what your opponents do is a big mistake, and it won't help you win.
Play poker at the right level. Choose betting limits where you feel like you have good odds of beating most people at the table. If you've been having trouble winning, move down in limits. That's important.

Get information through poker betting. This one might sound strange, but you might not always bet just because you have a good hand.
Betting can help you figure out what your opponents are likely to do. Defensive bets early on can help you keep from calling a bigger bet later on. Re-raises can help you figure out how credible your opponent really is.
Learn bluffing and do it well. Bluff when you need to, not all the time - the pros only use this technique when it'll help. If you bluff rarely, you'll be less likely to be called.
Figure out when your risk is lowest, and bluff then. You should also understand player position - strong hands can be influenced by the position in which you play them.
Study poker books and online advice sites to get the best advantage, whether you're playing
online casino poker
or you're just at home. They usually have something important to tell you! Keep notes about what does and doesn't work for you (some online casino programs even have a built in way for you to do this).
If you know what you're doing, playing poker can be a lot more fun, and you'll win more often.
