Hello Thanks for sharing this ......This is a highly informative posting which contains details that many of us would not be aware of. I would surely check out the link..... Thanks Have a nice time a head

Gain more knowledge on poker through books, make this as an investment. I recommend the ff: Zen and the Art of Poker - Insightful book on understanding your emotions in poker through Zen. The Theory of Poker - learning fundamentals of poker Ace on the River - Good book for aspiring poker professionals or poker enthusiasts.

My favorites are “super systems” and Power Hold'Em Strategy . The theory of poker is quire good . It is written by a poker genius.

but nothing beats Doyle Brunsons 'Super System 2' aka the bible for poker players. It can be a bit heavy going in certain sections but is well worth the read. I often use it as a reference that I go back to time and time again. The section on multi-table tournament play is excellent. A must read for any serious poker player.

I think the best way to learn is not by reading books, but by PLAYING the game! Go to different tournys, play with different people, etc.
