Books on 'other' forms of poker

**bjsaust** · 07-13-2012 12:00 AM

I've got the full tilt poker strategy guide (tournament edition) which has a few chapters on games other than HE and Omaha. Wondering what other books people might recommend for games beyond those two?

I haven't read either for a long time but I liked the 2+2 books, i think Ray Zee does stud 8 (combo with O8 but they are split) and sklansky stud high. I forget if there is a razz one, I do not own it. They are both old but I don't think these games change nearly as much as NLHE has.

the super systems have chapters. IIRC the stud '8' chapter in SS is just stud high low with no qualifier.

Ray Zee book on stud8 is a must read for this game, his O8 book is LO8 not PLO8, so depends on what you play
SS2 has a very good chapter on 2-7 by Negraneu

How about for PLO?

I've played very little. I've got Jeff Hwang's book PLO Big Play Strategy. Was wondering is this a good book to start out with? If not, what should I be looking for? (I'm an avid reading... just not so much when it comes to mixed games... 'yet')

tks

	If things were to magically revert to January 1st, 2003, only I could take everything I know now in terms of poker ability/knowledge, bonus clearing, etc., I think it's safe to say that it would be trivially easy to make over a million dollars.
