Sean's Poker Library

Many club members know that Sean likes to collect all manner of poker books.

Here is a list of his library. Club members that are interested in reading any of these can let him know at the next game.

Look for reviews to be included...in time.

New additions since October in RED.

2+2 Books

www.twoplustwo.com

2+2 has its supporters and detractors. Few people sit on the fence with their work. I happen to be a large supporter of the 2+2 canon and believe their writings are invaluable to any student of the game. Here is what I have in my collection:

	Theory of Poker, Sklansky
	Hold'Em Poker, Sklanksy
	Hold'Em for Advanced Players, Sklansky and Malmuth
	Seven Stud for Advanced Players, Sklansky, Malmuth and Zee
	High Low Split Poker for Advanced Players, Zee
	Small Stakes Hold'Em, Miller, Sklansky, Malmuth
	Tournament Poker for Advanced Players, Sklansky
	Getting the Best of It, Sklansky
	Poker, Gaming, and Life, Sklansky
	Sklansky on Poker, Sklansky
	Inside the Poker Mind, Feeney
	Poker Essays, Malmuth
	Poker Essays Vol II, Malmuth
	Poker Essays Vol III, Malmuth
	Fundamentals of Poker, Malmuth and Loomis
	Gambling Theory and Other Topics, Malmuth

The Poker Coach

www.pokercoach.us

Bob Ciaffone, aka the Coach, has quickly become one of my favourite authors. The authors of 2+2 seem to focus their works on limit poker, and my library had a hole when it came to non-limit poker. Ciaffone, a huge proponent of the big-bet games in both tournaments and cash games, has filled that gap. On top of that he is a clear and articulate writer. Proper English is extremely rare in poker books (even 2+2) and reading Ciaffone is a refreshing change.

Here are the Poker Coach books I own:

	Pot-Limit and No-Limit Poker, Ciaffone and Reuben
	Improve your Poker, Ciaffone
	Middle Limit Holdem Poker, Ciaffone and Brier
	Omaha Holdem Poker, Ciaffone

The Bible

Doyle Brunson's Super System started it all.

Super/System, Brunson

	How to Beat Low Limit Seven Card Stud Poker, Kammen
	The Complete Book of Hold'Em, Carson*
	Seven Card Stud: 42 Lessons How to Win at Lower and Medium limits, West

The Others

Here is the rest of the collection, good bad and ugly...

	Caro's Book of Tells, Caro
	Championship No-Limit and Pot-Limit Hold'Em, Cloutier and McEvoy
	Win at Poker, Rubens
	Winning Poker Systems, Zadeh
	Bluffing and Betting in Poker, Taetzsch
	Thursday Night Poker, Steiner
	Zen and the Art of Poker, Phillips*
	Play Poker Like the Pros, Hellmuth
	Internet Texas Hold'Em, Hilger
