A Good Poker Read \"The Professor, The Banker, and The Suicide King\"
This book is an interesting story about a matchup between some of the worlds best poker players and billionaire Andy Beal. Beal is a Texas business man who's goal was to master the game of poker and test his abilities against a Who's Who of high stakes poker (Doyle Brunson, David Grey, Chip Reese, Chau Giang, Jennifer Harman, Ted Forrest, Howard Lederer and some other noteable names).
The journey starts in 2001 when they play Beal in a $10,000/20,000 heads up limit poker match. By 2004 the players are playing at UNHEARD of levels, $100,000/200,000 where pots are most always exceeding $1 million.
This book is entertaining and easy to read, I read it in 4 hours. I would suggest this book on a plane ride to Vegas!!!
