Hello Guys!

I had a huge break in poker and I am back to the game. I used to play micro/low MT SNG games (with nice ROI) but I don't have enough time for it these days so I decided to switch to zoom games. Could you tell me what is the best book or even better online course about zoom 6-max games?

Thanks in advance!

They aren't specific to Zoom formats, but I'd say the best books for aspiring cash game crushers are Matt Janda's 'NLH for Advanced Players' and Peter Clarke's 'The Grinders Manual'.
For online cash gaming, signing up for the free Upswing Poker hand-charts and emails is pretty much mandatory, and you can consider subscribing to their training course product called (I think) 'The Upswing Poker Lab'.

And what do you think about it? Worth the price?

Unfortunately, I haven't read the Grinder's Manual, although people I respect gave it good reviews.
I think Janda's books and Doug's site provide a more 'game theoretical' basis for their strategic recommendations than Clarke did. i.e. 'The Grinders Manual' is more about exploiting the player pools up to 100NL, whereas Upswing and Janda are more concerned with "solid play" against stronger players.

Just coming in to second the all-around solid recs given here. TGM is considered a great starting point by many, Janda's new book provides a more solid theoretical grounding, and the lab is great for those who prefer more in-depth video content.
