The Wide Array of Poker Books

With the great surge in popularity of poker in recent years, especially Texas Holdem, there has been a correlating surge in poker books available on the market, as experts teach people how to play. Conducting a simple web search will bring up a long list of books that have been written for every level of expertise. When you buy and read a poker book, you can learn tips and strategies that would otherwise take years to learn at the tables.

There are so many websites that offer books on poker, yet it would be impossible to list them all. But as an example of what’s out there, you might peek at www.thepokerbookstore.com, which specializes only in books that teach strategies for Texas Holdem. And www.tightpoker.com is perhaps a more extensive information site, but does regular, in-depth book reviews. These aren’t limited just to books that teach Holdem strategy, as the site covers what it considers to be the best available books for all games, at all levels.

The authors are as numerous as the websites that carry or review poker books. But one name that comes up quite often in any of these reviews is David Sklansky. For example, his book, “The Theory of Poker” is described by the www.tightpoker.com reviewer as “one of, if not the best book on poker ever written.” It doesn’t give a quick overview of poker rules, but instead covers theories and concepts, so a player can hone his or her skills and understanding. This same site also highly recommends “Winning Low Limit Hold’em” by Lee Jones, as an introduction to Texas Holdem strategies for a player just starting out.

All it takes is a web search, and you’ll find poker books and be able to look for the ones best suited for you. Check out both customer and professional reviews, to discern which ones address your skill level, and which ones do not. No matter what your skills or experience, someone has written a book. Once you’ve decided on the book you want, look for it in a poker supply store or website, or in a bookstore, and your skills and enjoyment of the game are bound to improve.
