If you haven't read a poker book and are serious about poker then your retarded. Unless your a genius you'll never realize how much information your giving away or not recieving. If you do choose to read a book you should deffinatly read Sklansky. But if your a redneck idiot then dont bother, you won't get it any way. For the rednecks and retards read Brunson he "dumbs it down" for ya. But not to say that its not usefull information... Both grade A, just in different leagues.
