Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum and new to the game. I have a very basic understanding of the rules and I'm looking to learn as much as I can. I would like to think I'm above average intelligence and that I pick up things pretty quickly.

I live in Atlantic City and want to give this game a go to see if I can make some extra cash. I won't actually be playing for at least a couple months. I really wanna soak up the basics of being a serious player before I get my feet wet.

Are there books or articles you guys could recommend for a newbie trying get his head wrapped around the game?

Thanks in advance
