While the price seems high for a 154 page book it is so nicely done that
I must recomend it. The lay out is pure coffee table style, something that
you can pick up at leisure and skim thru. The features 52 poker hands played at the World Series of Poker, historical information, biographies,and great photographs. |
Great Gift for Poker Lovers!

| I received this as a gift and I love it. I would recommend it to anyone who plays poker or knows anyone who plays. It's easy to read or you can just look at the great pics. |
Great book for poker fans!

If I was going to be trapped on a desert Island and I could only bring three items with me, I would bring a fully supplied fishing boat, a desalinization plant, and a harem of playboy playmates.
I would not bring this book. It just wouldn't be practical. I suppose I could use the pages as kindling for a fire, but that would just be a waste of money. I'd imagine there are plenty of plants and brush I could use instead, so why waste the space bringing the book. Plus, the boat will be fully stocked, so I'll bet there will be matches on board, or maybe even a starter log.
But that scenario aside, it's a great book for poker aficionados and degenerate gamblers alike. For those who are new to the game it's a great way to learn about its rich history. For those who are illiterate, there are many spectacular pictures to look at while you hope and pray that no one discovers your dark shameful secret. Then again, if you are illiterate, you aren't reading this right now, so I guess it doesn't matter.
Take it from me (someone who hasn't known the author for 12 years) this book is great.
