I'm almost positive that I read this book a couple of years ago but it may have been one very similar to this one. As burnt as my brain can be at times, I can't imagine that I could re-read an entire book over again and still not be sure if I read it or not. I'm a huge fan of Texas Holdem so I grew up watching the World Series of Poker on ESPN when it was still at the Horseshoe Casino so I was familiar with some of it and it's also sort of a history on Las Vegas, Texas Holdem and some of the old school, great gamblers.… (more)
