You stated Inside the Poker Mind is the better of the two books, can I read that instead of Psychology of Poker, or could I just read Your Worst Poker Enemy without reading either before?

Thanks for your opinions!

Psychology of Poker is mainly a categorization of foes and their tendencies and motivations. When people ask for 'psycology' books, this is not usually their primary motivation, so I recommend it last of any of the ones out there.

If you want to work on your own tilt or other problems Inside the Poker Mind (Feeney) and Your Worst Poker Enemy (Schoonmaker) are both better choices. I don't think there is a prerequisite either way, so read them in what ever order you want.

Zen and Tao (both by Larry Phillips) are essential to any library (imho).

Also consider Ian Tayor/Matt Hilger's book The Poker Mindset. <<<possibly the best psychology book of any of them.
