    Default Better Tourney Play?

    I've been playing LHE for awhile now and like to reward myself every few months if I meet my BR goals by playing NLHE tournaments. It takes more concentration and I think it's a good idea to get away from the same tables.
    I've been in the money twice out of four times playing in single Sit & Go's. The last two tourneys I played were multi Sit & Go. I was one place out of the money on one and 10th on another. This last time I really made some dump ass mistakes that cost me.
    I'd like to get a good book on NLHE tournaments, but don't want the newby ones. Any suggestions?

    I've yet to read them but it seems everyone on this site swears by Harrington on Hold'em (Vol 1 and 2.) The best one I've personally ready was Championship No Limit & Pot Limit Hold 'Em by TJ Cloutier and Tom Mcevoy.

    I recently finshed HoH1 and I am 1/2 way through HoH2. These books are priceless and will help you tremendously.

    I'm about 90% done with HoH1 and I can say that my tournament play (I've played a few while reading it) has improved dramtically...that's given that I haven't absorbed all the information fully yet...

    Phil Gordon's Final Table Poker DVD is great too. Jason and I both reviewed it.

    search Final Table Poker subject only if that link doesn't work.

    I agree, that HoH is a great read, and I personally feel it's a must if you want to take it seriously.

    I have finished V1 and V2 a couple of weeks ago and it improved my game a hell of alot.
