Bargain : In the Money by Antonio Esfandiari
In the Money by Antonio Esfandiari is one of the best poker books that I have read. It is based on cash games. The main theme of the book is, playing the flop and turn. The main thing that Antonio encourages players to do is to play position and to call players raises on the flop looking to take the pot down on the turn. I thought this book approached the game from a different aspect compared to most other books out there, I think this book will definately improve most poker players games.- HighStakes Price: £3.50
