A good basic book- old, but the advice is good for beginners- is H O Yardley's The Education of a Poker Player

Once you're a master, you can play for Celebrations or Haribo. :biggrin:

Good times.

depends what you want to play.

A lot of sites will give you the basic setup and rules.
Try www.pokerpages.com , which is a pretty big poker resource.
Chances are you want to play Texas Hold 'em. Why not download www.vcpoker.com and play for "play money" (not real) which help you understand the game better.

If you want a book, I recommend the daddy of all: "Super System" by Doyle Brunson, or maybe "How to Play Poker Like the Pros" by Phil Helmuth.
