Re: How To Win No-Limit Tournaments by Tom McEvoy
I'm talking about How to Win at Poker Tournaments co-written by Roy West and published by Lyle Stuart in 1995.
McEvoy's backers according to the book:
Frank Henter = 35%
Johnny Chan = 20%
David Sklansky = 5% (because of a deal during the one table that McEvoy won)
Seymour Leibowitz/Jimmy Doman = 5%
Alan Elrod = 1%
Don Williams = 1%
The first place price money was around $500,000. McEvoy got $165,000. He says in another book that he immediately lost 150k of it in a scam stamp collecting scheme. And he also lost his bracelet while playing Pacman in Hawaii. Interesting read.
