Ive read most of super system and just picked up mike caros book, and i know those books are a tad outdated, but super system was a fantastic read and taught me a few nifty tricks, the question i have is what other books are good to read up on?

Also whats a good one for learning more about omaha and stud

The theory of Poker by Davis Sklansky are good for starters. Tournament tactics by Roy Rounders, is a fast read. Then “The Smarter Bet Guide to Poker”, Ace on the River best for competitive poker

the advanced player series from two plus two. older but i make some money when you buy one. but really they are the sound fundamentals of setting yourself up to improve.

My absolute favorite (and most beaten-up dogeared read and reread poker book), is the Stud/8 portion of High-Low Split Poker for Advanced Players.

Thanks, Ray! Helped me kill those low buy-in Stud/8 multis on 'Stars before Black Friday.

I bought the book after super/system mostly because the hilo split write up in super/system made it/7s8 sound ridiculously easy compared to all the other games. Then PLO8 sounded even easier and was big-bet and I didn't have to worry about folded cards.

Two books in one! indeed
