    Default Poker Books!?

    What poker books have you read? I as of yet, haven't read any! I mostly just go on websites to read strategy tips/articles, etc but am looking to invest in some poker books.

    What are the essentials?

    Supersystem?
    Slanskys Theory?
    Mike Caro's Book of Tells?
    Any others?

    If you were to recommend one or two books what would it be?

    Cheers

    harrington 1 2 and 3 (depending on your playing standard wont teach you much but might have a cpl of things you've overlooked)
    sklanskys theory of poker (its tough going but starts making sense the 5th time through it)
    ken warren teaches texas holdem (essentially a beginners book but a few pointers and exercises to test yaself with)

    http://www.thepokerforum.com/bookreviews.htm some good reviews for some of the lesser popular titles

    Cheers + cheers for the link, I think I'm gonna order Sklanskys theory of poker first.

    Maybe another one too although haven't had time to look through all the reviews!
