Fro had a post last week about poker books and I have one of my own to add to the list: Inside the Poker Mind by John Feeney. I am reading this book now and am surprised at just how good and relevant it is. The book is specifically about behavior and psychology in poker and has a lot of very relevant and "gee whiz" insights.
It's a rather advanced book and assumes that the reader already knows quite a bit about general terminology and strategy and has ample experience playing casino poker, so I have to say that it should probably be way down on Fro's list of what to read first. Similarly, if you're more concerned with playing occasional beer poker with your buddies and aren't interested in playing regularly in cardrooms, it probably won't be of much help, either. Nonetheless, if you play in casinos or cardrooms and want to get better and improve your game I highly recommend that you read it eventually - you'll learn a lot.
