What I've Been Reading

Alex's Adventures in Numberland by Alex Bellos. Somehow it makes mathematics readable. It has the best explanation of equity value I've read.

* Kill Everyone: Advanced Strategies for No-limit Hold 'em Poker Tournaments and Sit-n-go's by Lee Nelson and co. "Kill Everyone" is a disturbing title for book that lies on my coffee table. I found it particularly helpful in making my live tournament playing style more aggressive.

* Start Small, Stay Small: A Developer's Guide to Launching a Startup by Rob Walling. A book I wish had been available when I started Poker Copilot. Perfect to read if you are hoping to start a one-person software company.

I'm currently reading "The Poker Mindset". Nothing to do with strategy, it's all about being prepared for swings, bad beats etc. Be on the right state of mind to play and make the correct decisions..amazing book from what I've read so far. Definitely buy it :)

tommy angelo's "elements of poker" is along the same lines of "the poker mindset" but IMO much better. focuses on tilt control etc.

also steve to go along with kill everyone if you haven't read harrington on holdem volume 2 (the endgame) you really should- implementing all the ideas in those two books will instantly put you in the top 5% of all live fields... and then when you win mad mobneys in live tourneys you can spend it on poker copilot development (and more stats!)
keep up the great work
