This would actually seem a gap in the market. the only book I know of that specifically talks about live play is "Mastering low stakes NLHE poker cash games", by Nathan Schwiethale, but this book is for beginners and some of the content I found questionable.
Books will help w the theoretical stuff, but the content in this forum is invaluable.
I mostly play in home games now, but I don't see the difference between online and live poker. The aggression is toned down a bit (that correlates with bet sizing?), but it's all the same game just a different medium. I read a lot of poker books that were written with online play in mind, but the information there can be used in the general game of poker, not just through the medium of online.
During the week I try to *grunch* five threads a day, I agree with your view on the valuable information found here, but please elaborate on how the two venues, online poker and live poker, need different materials.
