Non Instructional Books

[Lakewood Ace]

I'm looking for some good non instructional poker/sports books to read. So far I've read:

The Professor, Banker and the Suicide King - Great book
The Smart Money- Michael Konick Sports betting book- very good read.
Bringing down the House- M.I.T Blackjack Team - Good read
Amarillo Slim in a World of fat people- OK read

Currently reading Positively Fifth Street...

Any other recomendations???

Thanks!

Same here. I can barely get through 2 pages of most books but finished that the same Christmas day I got it.

I really enjoyed How To Win The World Series Of Poker (Or Not) by Pat Walsh.

A well written and informative book.

Positively 5th Street was also very good.

The Biggest Game in Town by Alvarez will always be a classic in poker literature... a must read by any hardcore poker fan in my opinion.

Big Deal and the more current Bigger Deal by Tony Holden are both very good.

Champion of Champions, the biography of Johnny Moss makes Stu Ungar (as portrayed in One of a Kind) like a conservative gambler. It is an awesome read.

Another great book is the Biggest Game in Town which is about the 1981 WSOP. Watch a video of the 1981 WSOP along with it.

Gambling Wizards by Richard Munchkin profiles 8 or so top gamblers in poker, blackjack, sports betting, horses etc.

"Poker Wisdom of a Champion" (Brunson) is worth a read
