I mean, if you are contemplating about gifts for online poker players, you might as well think of something that would enhance his/her playing performance. "Real Poker II - The Play of Hands" would be one good choice, penned by Roy Cooke (this is a columnist). This book is an accumulation of his columns, in a span of 7 years since 1992. Another one- Full Tilt Poker Strategy Guide: Tournament Edition, and obviously, this was written by not just one poker maestro. A dozen of the best in the world pooled their knowledge to come up with winning techniques via this reference. Playing particular hands is very useful, and it is found in this book. Two last things, when I say 'online poker players', I am referring to somebody whom you consider as above an acquaintance, for I know people who would give something to somebody they have just chatted with for the first time. Another, gifts for online poker players need not be expensive. Like, you could enroll him/her at an affordable site- meaning, you'll register him at an online room using your own money, right? (Take note, some rooms do not allow this, just a reminder).
