"No man without a library card can be a friend of mine. I have no time for ignorance."

Just finished a surprisingly interesting book.

Moneymaker by Chris Moneymaker

It's an easy, fun read, actually. Very surprising. Not educational, but I couldn't put it down. (The guy might be a good player, someday, or he may end up being poker's John Daly. There must be a pool out there somewhere betting on when he goes into alcohol rehab.)


Just started: Poker Nation by Andy Bellin

This one has been around awhile. It's worth reading if only because it's the only place I've read a bio of Benny Binion.

Ever heard QQ called "Seigfried & Roy"? (I wonder why?)
Or a set of Qs as "six tits"?

It's a pretty funny, well-written book. And this one could be considered educational, as well as entertaining.

That's why I have a library card, fi. I don't think I'd spend the money on it, as it's not going to MAKE you any money. Check it out at the library, if you can. (They'll put books on reserve for you, if it's checked out or they don't have it.)

What books do you own?

Yeah CJ, I should get back into the library thing. I do it in phases. Lately I have been giving myself a poker book budget each month, then hold off until the next month after I have spent it. I have about 20 poker books, and most are not great. my favorites are Harrington on Hold Em (by far the best single book I have read), Pot Limit and No Limit Poker by Reuben/Ciaffone, doyle's no limit section in supersystem, and Small Stakes Hold Em by miller/sklansky/malmuth.
