General Poker Discussion Poker Forums

I got two books from my friend and was wondering which one would suit me better for this point in my poker development.

1) Bobbo`s Bible of NLHE
2) Oliver Marx (Improva) Poker Puzzle

I`m playing poker all together less then a year, played some HU cash and sng`s 2 years ago, and now i started playing 6m just 4 months ago.
Curently i`m playing 25NL Zoom, and will try to move up to 50NL next month hopefully, but plan to play regular tables as soon as i hit Sn.
I lack some fundamentals in my game as well as understanding behind some concepts in 3B pots(i.e which boards to cbet, which to double barrel, how to react to c/r on A,K high flops etc.), and playing more comfortably oop.
I also have ADHD and am having trouble concentrating when reading practical stuff ( not like reading novels).
So any advice on how to maximize learning potential and how to get the best of what these books have to offer, as well as which one would suit me better, is very welcome.

Some combination of highlighting/writing notes as you go and summarizing each chapter as you finish it.

Can ADHD be cured?

Playing a lot, posting hands and listening to advice from respected members, watching videos and asking questions about them, talking poker with other players, and getting coaching will do a lot more for you than a book.

Thx mitch.

Can ADHD be cured?

-Don`t know.I never took any medications for it, but i`m an athlete and been training (kickboxing, mix martial arts and swimming), since i was a kid, so that`s how i deal with it.

Yeah i agree 100%, still never read a book about poker and i heard these two were good.
I do plan on getting coaching, soon as i move to NL50.
It`s a slow grind.

writing notes as you go

back when I was in school I used to basically rewrite the text books to help me remember things. Worked like a charm, but def led to lots of hand cramps.

Steppin Razor, I'm sure that's the excuse you used for your hand cramps.
