Introduction by Ian Fleming ( ) Much of Yardley's technical advice has been surpassed by a new generation of thinking and computer simulations but his human observations and advice on how to understand what is happening at a poker table are timeless. An added benefit is to see into the mind of someone who was highly successful in other interesting endeavors. Judging the book for what it was and when it was written, it was a technical masterpiece that provided more reliable information than anything before it; sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
This classic is not only a poker playing manual but a marvellous autobiography. First published in 1957, Yardley, also the first chief of the US code breakers during W.W.1 and W.W.2, recalls countless poker games with characters ranging from railroad men, travelling salesmen, speculators, drunks, no-hopers, and even secret agents, all seen across the green baize tables of the world. Offering fascinating insight into Yardley's cautious/tight play variety of poker as well as the world of code breaking, this book is in a league of its own.
