THE PROFESSOR, THE BANKER, AND THE SUICIDE KING
Michael Craig
“A thrilling portal into a culture the rest of us can scarcely imagine.”
—Robert Kurson, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING author of Shadow Divers
About the Book
In 2001, a stranger from Texas entered the high-stakes poker room in the Bellagio casino in Las Vegas. A self-made billionaire, he challenged some of poker's greatest players to a series of heads-up matches. By the end, there was more than $20 million on the table. For the first time ever, here is the detailed, true account of the legendary Big Game that shocked the poker world. Putting you rail side to observe the pulse-pounding action, it takes you inside the iron-nerved mind of the professional gambler. Filled with vivid characters, sensational tales, and riveting human drama, this is a unique, suspenseful journey into the world of people who live on the razor's edge of fortune-where incredible wealth or utter ruin turn on the flip of a card.
