"One of a Kind" by Nolan Dalla and "the Biggest Game in Town" by Al Alvarez are my personal favorites.

I'm currently reading banker, suicide king... and i tihnk its pretty boring. I'm about half way through and had to start reading a stephen king (Long Walk, awesome).

Love poker nation, 5th street, and big deal by anthony holden.

Ken

Rounders the novel based on the screenplay, has an extra chapter at end beyond Mike going to vegas. Real quick read, basically the movie.
