A lot of books are kind of out dated now.
There’s more efficient ways to learn poker..
Studying with software, training vids, coaching, etc are a lot better use of your time, I think.
GL, nice results recently.
Thanks for the advice.
I try to be selective what I read. It seems to be the cheapest (most ROI?) way to gain poker knowledge. There are some timeless classics (like MOP, TMGOP), so I intend to go through them all. Also, I read some old established/accessible books because that is what recreational players read -- good to know what they know.
This may not be the best material to crush specific stakes, but it should be ok in the long term.
I have been watching vids from blackrain, doug, nanonoko, parttimepoker, etc, but it is literally 100s of hours. I would argue that books are more efficient to get the essence of what these videos are trying to teach.
Software is probably the most efficient way to get my game improved, but I don't have any hand history from Global.
I would love to have a coach but cannot afford one right now. I have a study group with newbie fellas who have similar goals & challenges.
