documented long term winning low limit hold em and 7 card stud player ( 2-4 / 10-20 , 1-5 / 10-20) wanting to develop a game in No Limit Hold em in an effort to take advantage of huge availability of games from the 1-2 to 2-5 range.

What books and in which order do you winning live NLHE players recommend I read?

I have zero playing experience in the casino game but have played against many winning NLHE players in micro limit home games and basically get dusted every time we play

books I have are

No limit hold em Theory and practice
winning small stakes No limit
professional No limit hold em volume one
How to read hands at no limit hold em
Decide to play great poker
Playing the Player

Im currently about on page 148 of theory and practice.

TIA

I read PNLHE and SSNL by Ed miller and two other guys and those are two very good books.

thanks.

I feel like you have most of the books I would take with me to a desert island if I wanted to read about NLHE the whole time I was there. The following is my humble opinion, but there's a recommended reading thread in the Live Low-stakes No Limit forum here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/17...g-list-778915/

No Limit Hold 'Em: Theory and Practice (Sklansky/Miller)
Professional No Limit Hold 'Em: Volume 1 (Miller/Mehta/Flynn)
Small Stakes No Limit Hold 'Em (Miller/Mehta/Flynn)
How to Read Hands at No Limit Hold 'Em (Miller)
Playing the Player (Miller)

These are the ones you have already, right? If you got started with just those, you'd be pretty much OK in my opinion. If you've already churned through them, there's a few more I'd recommend that have advanced my thinking in the game (so that I suck a lot less now than I used to, haha)

Harrington on Cash: Vol. 1 & 2 (Dan Harrington)
Easy Game 3rd Ed. (Andrew "Balugawhale" Seidman)
The Poker Blueprint (Nguyen/Davis)
The NLHE Workbook (Nguyen/Marchese)

The last 3 are online-focused books but introduced me in a big way to stuff like range oriented thinking and combinatorics, and despite being a few years old and advocating a strategy that is a bit aggro (to say the least) for live low-stakes NL, do a lot to get the hamster running on his wheel when it comes to you thinking about hands.

If you want an order to read these books in, I'd go with the order I listed them in the post here, except I'd consider putting Miller's most recent 2 books at the end. Even though you could jump right into them after, say, NLHE:T&P, I feel like they build on a lot of the commonly available poker literature and advances in thought since the work he did with Mehta and Flynn.

"Decide to Play Great Poker" is also awesome to have around, especially if you have a wobbly table that needs to be balanced, run out of TP or need to start a fire. See the review from DS himself here: http://www.twoplustwo.com/magazine/i...dukes-book.php

I talked to Ed at a luncheon yesterday He suggested

professional poker vol 1

followed by

how to read hands

and then

playing the player

he also said theory and practice is def worth a read

and small stake no limit was basically concerned with the online game.
