Books wont help... i never read a single poker book. I play the man, not the cards. Which is why I used to do alot better on the poker tables compared to online. Its like trading... its a game of psychology.
Only thing I gotta disagree with you is that I reckon it's important to read about poker stats. Most ppl who start never count their outs and they don't know the stats behind a hand. AK suited versus wired J's pre-flop..who has the best chance of winning.

Its not always easy to play another man, because someone who has absolutely no idea what they're doing can actually be harder than playing a seasoned player. Its kind of like drunken boxing against noobs and I've been bad beat heaps of times by people who will call an all in when I have wired kings and they have only an Ace high with a 7!
