Road to Success: No limit, limit

Here I placed together the road to success in holdem. Books to accelerate your knowledge, where to go for advise and training, and how to get rakeback for playing.

If you are a casual player just click here for Carbon Poker. It has the best software, is the safest poker site online, and has a large selection of games. I play on Full Tilt myself.

Limit Holdem No Limit Holdem

If you are looking for books on learning limit holdem I recommend the sources in my limit holdem book section for playing.

Lee Jone's book Winning Low Limit Holdem is the best starters book

Follow it up with Ed Miller's Small Stakes Holdem.

I would also get up Mike Petriv's Hold'em Odds Book.

When dealing with advanced opponents read Ciaffone's Middle Limit Holdem Poker and for high stakes limit games I recommend Winning in Tough Hold 'em Games

As always pay attention to the rake at your casino and do some research. Some casinos the rake makes it almost impossible to win money at low limits.

If you are looking for books on learning no limit holdem I recommend the sources in my no limit book section for playing.

Beginning Players: I recommend both Harrington Books to start with. It lays a solid tight foundation to expand from there.

Struggling Players: If you are a struggling player, with no limit, I highly recommend getting the following books from the below list. Read professional NL Vol 1 last in the list:
Small Stakes No-Limit Hold'em - No Limit: Theory and Practice - Professional No-Limit Hold 'em: Volume .

6 Max players: Harrington's 6-Max No-Limit Hold 'em: I have not read this yet but the reviews by buyers mark it as 4-5 stars. I plan on reading this this year.

You can email me if you have any questions.

Psychology of the game

Some books I strongly recommend for live play and for your own mental zen.

Food for your brain: For your own discipline I recommend one of these two books. Barry's did it for me.
Ace on the River (Barry Greenstein)

Tao of Poker (Larry W. Phillips)

Table Psycology: How to act, what to think, how to be at a poker table.
Inside the Poker Mind (John Feeney Ph.D):

Reading other players: Learn your opponent's body language and what it means. Both these books paid for themselves the first night after I read them.
Caro's Book of Poker Tells (Mike Caro)

Read 'Em and Reap (Phil Hellmuth)
