Mr. Doyle Brunson is one of the true legends of poker, and this book probably is the most legendary poker book ever written. Educating players for decades, Super System: A Course in Power Poker by Doyle Brunson is the book that has lead the current generation of money-making professionals to poker riches, in my opinion.

I actually enjoyed the read, considering the fact that it’s an old book. I loved Chip Reese’s part of the book – and really endorse the whole book!

Billionaire Andy Beal took on a “team” of professional poker players (known as The Corporation) in the highest stakes cash-game ever to be played in the world. In this book, Michael Craig talks about the game, the people involved and gives us an insight in the world of ultra-high stakes gambling.

I loved this book, and honestly feel all poker fans should give it a try.

Mike Caro’s Book of Poker Tells

Subtitled “The Psychology and Body Language of Poker”, Caro’s Book of Poker Tells (formerly titled Caro’s Book of Tells) is a true classic in the poker community. Legendary author Mike Caro writes about some very well-known and some very marginal tells at the poker table, which will allow you to spot important signs while playing. It is a good book, but due to the fact that it is somewhat dated – quite a few players know all these things, and might use them against you…

It’s very much worth reading, but I do suggest you to keep in mind that the more experienced players at the table probably read this book too…
