Default Re: Entertaining pokerbooks I should read

[ QUOTE ]
I found Doyle's book "poker wisdom of a campion" quite enjoyable. Many stories from the old days.
"The professor, the banker and the suicide king" was also a good read.

Both very true. I always enjoyed Doyle's down home, folksy tales of life as a Texas road gambler.

And "Professor, Banker" left me with two things stuck in my mind. First, that Jen Harmon is totally an ass-kickin', world class poker player. She's much more the hero of the story than Howard or Doyle. Second, I wish more billionairs were both poker players and degenerate gamblers. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

"That's it. I'm quitting poker forever."

"Sorry to hear that, Andy. See you in two weeks."
