Texas Holdem »

Tony Korfman was born in New York, though he says he was raised in San Francisco by a family of seagulls. Korfman plays a lot of tournament Texas Holdem and cash games and has been featured on the Ultimate Poker Challenge television program. He recently came in second out of 1,830 players at the World Series of Poker Senior Tournament. His humor at the poker table has made him legendary.

Texas Holdem is being played 24 hours a day worldwide. Tournaments and high stakes cash games are played on TV constantly. The author not only takes you into the major Las Vegas strip casinos he has played at, but also provides laugh-out-loud situations that have had the poker pros that have read the book immediately seek therapy. The author blends strategy with his humor and says, if you don't like the book, it makes an excellent ice scraper or wheel block when you park on a steep hill.
