1) There is a lot books out there, for which game?.....I guess I go with : SUPER SYSTEM2, THE THEORY OF POKER, PHIL GORDON'S BOOKS, MIKE CARO BOOK OF TELLS, ACE ON THE RIVER, PHIL HELLMUTH BOOKS, DAN HARIGTHON BOOKS....
2) Best poker site right now, I go with: FULL TILT, POKER STARS, DOYLES ROOM, ABSOLUTE POKER.
3) Philosophical thinking: "THE PROFESSIONAL POKER PLAYER DOES NOT PLAY MANY HANDS, BUT WHEN THEY PLAY THEM, THEY PLAY THEM LIKE THEY HAD THE NUTS!"
"LUCK COMES AND GOES...BUT KNOWLEDGE STAYS FOREVER"
And favourite poker player: That a though one, for me i appreciate the game of many, so I go with: D.NEGREANU, P.IVEY, D.BRUNSON, J.HARMAN, J.JUANDA, P.LAAK, E. LINGREEN, S.FISHMANN, H.LEDDERER, P.GORDON, C.FERGUSON, J.CHAN...........................And more, all for differents reasons.
Take care

The best player is either Phil Ivey or Chip Reese. Any pro will tell you this. The best poker site is Full Tilt Poker. The best books out there are supersystem 1 and 2 and all the sklansky books. Play agressive but don't be afraid to slow down.

Of course, I'm going w/ today's Jennifer Harman(woman player). Is she one of the best?? ahhh, but I like her style, and I'm sure she can kick all of our a----! As far as sites, I don't do much in terms of poker sites, quick glimpse here and there.* I say read a lot, (books) photo visuals, long as there's a study, to get your hands on, Pick it up! All though, I recall out loud so when I'm playing it tends to piss people off, they think I'm reading this crap from the sky, over active photo mem.(sweet gift to have). Lastly, I've learned most techniques from your run of the mill old timer's, but they play dirty, so I kind of have to scratch that! All though, they still no there sh-t, so you can definitely learn from other people. Study faces, eyes, get into the brain, see what makes them tick. I take it with me outside the gambling world, funny how these skills apply to every day life and your so called philosophical things. Reading people is more then 1/2 of what it's about. And for me being a woman player! Never do I let on I can play? Funny, how I can get you weak ones, soon as I take off my shades, play the eyes over and over,...love it love it love it!! Breaks over, now I have to get back to studying real world crap!

I have read a few books on poker but would not like to recomend one as i think they depend on the players style that wrote it.Different styles of play have to be adapted acording to your opponent or opponnents.Sometimes aggressive play wins trough other times not.Every game is different so being able to change your style to how you read your opponents play can be a big asset.So for that reason read as many books as you can ,you will find usefull tips in all of them. Pokerstars i find the best site,for graphics and smoothness of play. Try to stay focused on your game as some games can drag on if the cards are not falling for you it can change the otherway at anytime. Always play your best game and try not to let bad beats get you down as you will have your fair share of suckouts like everyone else .Most of all just enjoy it and only play with money you can afford to lose.I tend to play mostly tournaments because your not paying a rakeback like you have to on cash tables.Good luck and remember ENJOY!

I performed with many execs, yet in no way locate myself next to Humberto..Thank god. that's why i like my Ipod lots each and every so often
