[Mason Malmuth]

Hi Gonso:

I spoke to them late today and you should hear from them tomorrow.

Best wishes,
Mason

Thanks for your suggestions Boz and Earl Sleek. The title is the most difficult part right now and I'm probably going to trash the title I have now and play around with "World Class" some more. A shorter title would help a lot, but as Boz mentioned, Mason would have to approve.

Hi Roxysurfergirl00:

We already have announced the book with its current title including to some of our buyers. So this makes it difficult to change the title.

Best wishes,
Mason

No problem Mason, but I won't be available at all after 6pm EST, maybe not even that late.

Hi Mason,

That's fine with me. I keep getting ideas on how to layout this title in a way that it looks similar to the original, so I'm sure I will come up with something good.

Wow, congrats to all of the winners. They all look great! Talent at poker, talent with illustration and design...

Here is another revised version of my WCHS&SHLHE. I took Earl's suggestion into consideration and moved the "world class" from the corner to the left top and changed the kerning and the leading a bit. I added the space for Alan Schoonmaker's picture, and enlarged the Club in the back in order to fit the author's on the spine inside of it. I think it looks much better with the changed title.

Hi Roxysurfergirl00:

One suggestion. On the back cover the order of the picutres from left to right should be Ray Zee, David Fromm, and then Alan Schoonmaker.

Best wishes,
Mason

Mason,

I switched the black on the chips to a brighter color and changed the border to white. Using the white border with the original colors on the chip also distinguishes the chip from the background.

I really like the changes you made. Very nice contrast.
