I want to read up on holdem. I know super system is a good book but I plan to wait for super system II plus I dont really care about 7 card stud and various other games they have in super system. Can anyone recommend a good book for holdem?

nevermind I picked up David Sklanskys Texas holdem and then I wll pick up the sequel. After that hopefully super system II will be out.

Stay away from Hellmuth's book. Check out Ken Warren's work unless you feel you're advanced alraedy. Check out most of Sklansky's work, including his book on tournament poker (it's for all types of poker). Also check out Malmuth's Psychology of Poker, also from 2+2 publishing. While not a required reading, it gave me some serious insights into the game.

Um, isn't it Sun Tzu?

You have seen one Tzu, you have seen them all.

You are correct-Lao Tzu founded Taoism (Ying and Yang, nothing is all good or evil and all that BS)

Sklanskys Texas Holdem is an Ok book. I'd recommend it. You may also be interested in checking out "Winning Low Limit Holdem". That book helped me quite a bit in my earlier playing days.
