 Winning Low-Limit Hold'em (2nd Edition) by Lee Jones
If you are looking for a book on the basics of Texas Hold'em, this is the book for you. Winning Low-Limit Hold'em will not get into deep strategies or advanced poker theory but what it will do is give you a solid foundation on the game and get you to the table knowing a heck of a lot more than your opponents at those beginner tables.
As is written on the back cover of this book by Chris Ferguson the 2000 champion at the World Series of Poker, "Don't read this book! If everyone followed the instructions in this book I'd have to find a new line of work. P.S. If you see a long haired homeless guy sleeping on a park bench, please give him a dollar."
The beautiful slant on this book is that is solely concentrates on the low limit tables. It is playing on these tables where you will cut your teeth and learn the game. However, these tables while learning the game of Texas Hold'em and its intricacies have a fundamental betting difference. The strategies you’ll need to be successful at this type of table are laid out precisely and in layman’s terms.
This should be on everyone’s shelf and re-read time and time again. The type of book that will re-enforce the basics and help get rid of some bad habits that are easy to pick up along the way. Keep a copy of Winning Low-Limit Hold'em in your collection and you will never regret it.
