| Not even sure why I picked this book up, I was at a Library one day looking to see if they had any poker advice books for a recent flight to Vegas...all were checked out. Not knowing anything about this book I decided to give it a whirl. To my amazement, I could not put down this master piece. What a great read from cover to finish. Not only does it teach you history of poker, philosopy, how poker skills are utilized elsewher, Binions murder specifics, McManus's great run in 2000, but it's also a great life lesson. I'd recommend this book to anyone interested in the history of poker. It will also lend some advice, but it's obviously not a "How To" book. Look forward to meeting Jim someday on a Full Tilt Table. |

| I thought the book was OK, but I'm more intrigued about this so-called "library" you claimed to be at. Details, please. |
