“Decisions, not results. Do the right thing enough times and the results will take care of themselves in the long run.”- Amarillo Slim Preston (from Amarillo Slim in a World Full of Fat People)

Hold'em Poker by David Sklansky Hold'em Poker is a great book on Texas Hold'em Poker. This introductory text explains some of the most important skills every player should have in his/her arsenal. In addition to starting hands and situation strategy, it also explains some deeper concepts such as Semi-Bluffing and paying attention to the best possible hand at all times. This book is recommended for every player and serves as a good introduction to Texas Hold'em. The only drawback this book has, as do many of David Sklansky's books, is that the thinking becomes so deep, that it is sometimes hard to follow. (this probably just shows the limitations of how deep I can think:) ) It is usually a good idea to re-read any paragraphs that you don't understand until you do, as the knowledge within is always worthwhile.

The information contained in this site is what I have been putting together to make sure I remember the concepts and ideas that I have come across. Most of the information is geared toward lower limit play, however the key concept to good poker play is to be adaptable to your environment. If you're at a middle limit table and people are playing like it's low limit, you should know how to play them. If you are at a low limit table and the game is tight and similar to a middle/high limit game, you should know how to play that as well.
