Book Smarts
This poker thing's starting to get a little more serious again. I've been reading Professional No-Limit Hold'em since Monday. I also picked up a couple of books on Amazon, Small Stakes No-Limit Hold'em and Harrington on Online Cash Games. Amazon.com was able to ship those books from Phoenix to Ottawa (Canada) in less than 24 hours. Take that, Canada Post!
I was actually surprised at how many poker books have come out over the past year and a half. It's nice to see that the game I loved plodded along without me. I've actually put together a small list of 17 books that I'd like to buy. Sure - I could watch videos. But I love the feel of cracking open a new poker book and hoping that I'll pick up one or two good tips. I've also found that poker books help with my frequent insomnia - especially anything written by Sklansky. DUCY?
Plans for the weekend? Read some Harrington on Online Cash Games, play some Pinball FX 2, and play a little cash game hold'em. We'll see if I can put my recent study to good use at the $0.01/$0.02 tables. My bankroll's a joke right now but I'm hoping to turn things around soon.
I'm feeling a little lucky too. I may try my hand at some online blackjack at www.onlinecasinoclub32.com! Worked for me a few times in the past so it's worth another shot, right?
Have a good one.

Great to see and read your this post.. NO limit Hold'em is a great software to play in.
Those are good poker books...
Its quite interesting to note, a lot of people dont even know these kinds of books exist. That only professional players write auto-biographies which contains a small amount of information. You can find some really interesting reads
Good to see people are still investing time in writing these poker books. Sure you can find out a lot on poker sites, blogs and video's but you can't beat reading a new book in the hope of finding a few new tips!
It's refreshing to see that people are still reading and researching about Poker through the traditional methods - books, as opposed to reading about it all online!
