So, I just finished this book, read it in two days because it was so interesting. The book, 'The Professor, The Banker, and the Suicide King: Inside the Richest Poker Game of All Time' is about Billionare Banker Andy Beal and his quest to play the Top Pros in the game.
The book just came out in June I believe and it is really a great read. The book isn't anything like most poker books, it's no strategy or any of that, just the story behind the game that had $40 Million on the table.
If anyone has any updated information about Beal it'd be greatly appreciated.
Once again it's 'The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King: Inside the Richest Poker Game of All Time' by Michael Craig.
Oh and Geno/Webmaster, I didn't mean for this post to be spam but reading it may seem like it, if you want me to I'll remove it, just let me know.
Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites.
