I've always been a No Limit player but I've recently started playing O8. What are the most helpful books on the subject?

If you´re talking limit O8, you need look no further than Ray Zee´s High Low Split Poker for advanced players. Two books in one as it also covers 7 Card Stud Hi Lo.
For Pot Limit, there is a good chapter in Jeff Hwang´s first book.

If you are looking at Limit, Lou Krieger and Mark Tanner has a decent book
For pot limit, there is also Dan Deppen's book.
Jeff Hwang's chapter is quite brief - there is not a lot of great info on PLO 8 books available.

I think Deppen is the best. Pretty crazy how he analyzes and approaches the game. I split reading this book on the high and low end of the day.

Zee's book is outstanding.
There was I video I checked out years back that featured Mark Gregorich and that was decent.

Bob Ciaffone's book is very concise and worth a look.

The LO8 section in Super System is excellent.

If you're grinding low fixed limit o8, I'd recommend Mike Cappelletti's book How to Win at Omaha High Low Poker

How does Dan Deppen's book stand up to 2017 games?
