But if you are just starting out, I think most need to move down the loose-tight axis (using the matrix from Psychology of Poker). I think Jones' book will help with this. People starting out with more sophisticated strategies and concepts ala Miller et al are bound for confusion IMHO.
You can work on aggression from there.
Personally, I rely most heavily on Theory of Poker, but holdem is not my primary game.

You think lee jones is still relevant to your game now?
I agree its a good transition from amateur to winner, but how much of it do you still use?

Amazon doesn't allow me to buy its .pdf books because I'm from Europe (???). Is there any internet site where I could buy some .pdf poker books? Thank you | | Static Link |

Any recommendations for limit or NL hold'em books? I usually play .5/1 limit or 25NL. | | Static Link |
