First Month of Dirty Poker

My book "Dirty Poker" has been out a month now. It's doing quite well, and thank you for your support.

Of course with a controversial book like this, not everyone is going to like it, especially those affiliated with the online poker sites. In fact, there has been an active collusion between several of the major online poker rooms and the poker portal Poker777.com to squash my book, of which I have documented evidence. The book was reviewed by Poker777.com, and it was a stellar review, but mysteriously it never appeared on their site after "Rifka," the chief editor, stated that "Dirty Poker" would receive its own web page on their site...Funny, huh?

On Sunday, April 16, the New York Times published a major article on the poker craze in which they mentioned my book as well as an interesting tidbit on Doyle Brunson. Apparently the old legend of poker is under investigation by the SEC for manipulating the price of World Poker Tour Enterprises stock.

I tell ya, like I say in the book, there are a lot of crooks out there in the poker world!

I'm waiting for the UK newspaper the Mail On Sunday to release an article about Dirty Poker.

My book, AMERICAN ROULETTE (St. Martin's Press), tells the true story of my twenty-five years as a professional casino cheater. Upon arriving in Las Vegas, in my early twenties, I supported myself solely through legitimate gambling. However, I soon found myself broke and homeless, living under a highway overpass. I eventually sought gainful employment in the only industry I had knowledge of, becoming a Blackjack and Baccarat dealer. Armed with experience on both sides of the tables, my mentor to be, Joe Classon taught the ways of a professional casino cheater. Although retired, I keep up on the various cons and scams that law enforcement is largely unnable to adequately police.
