I don't really know what to tell anyone I want for X-mas and since the day is getting closer they are starting to get pretty annoyed with me so I figured I'd ask from some poker books I haven't read yet as well as X-box games I'll never play or DVD's I'll never watch. At least I'll read the books.
Books I've already read/own/have access to:
-Super System II
-Small Stakes Hold'em (the red one by Sklansky and Malmouth)
-Psychology of Poker
-Harrington I
-Harrington II
-Theory of Poker
-Tournament Poker and the Art of War
-The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King (not strategy, but a great read and I'd be open to reading any books similar to this).
Thanks in advance.

There are good books I'd recommend, but they may be a step below what you've already read.
The only books you're missing are Sklansky's No Limit Hold'em: Theory & Practice and Hold'em Poker For Advanced Players.
If you only play NL, you won't need HPFAP since its about Limit.
I would also recommend Inside The Poker Mind by Freeney.
I hate to recommend all these 2+2 books, but a good book is a good book I guess...

Poker is silly.
It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.
Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.
