Strategy

Easy to read and packed with real-life situations from no-limit Hold’em tournaments.

The Theory of Poker – David Sklansky (£12.95)

A must-read. It was Raymer’s first bit of advice to his new protege.

Super/System – Doyle Brunson (£19.95)

The original (but no longer the best), Brunson’s bible provides a solid course in Hold’em aggression.

Kill Phil – Rodman and Nelson (£16.95)

Caro’s Book of Poker Tells – Mike Caro (£16.95)

The revised version, with over 170 photo illustrations straight from the Joy of Sex school.

If Caro’s the old school, Joe Navarro – a former FBI counterintelligence officer – is definitely the new.

Sklansky turns his attention to no-limit cash games.

The Rest

The venerable writer’s adventures at the WSOP and beyond are still a compelling read.

Swimming with the Devilfish – Des Wilson (£7.99)

The story of a petty criminal turned poker legend.

Aces and Kings – Michael Kaplan and Brad Reagan (£7.99)

Still one of the best poker books money can buy.

The history of poker rewritten. Forget everything you knew – this is how it really happened.

The Man Behind the Shades – Nolan Dalla and Peter Alson (£7.99)

The bio of Stu Ungar, the world’s best poker player and the game’s most tragic story. A brilliant book.

Back in print and an absolute must-read.
