Come for the Poker, Stay for the Jouney
Whether it be the Poker, the celebrity that brings you to the book that's fine. What will keep you reading is the snippets of colour, the wending journey of life and the ebb and flow in all.

I did not expect a book about poker would make me cry several times but here we are. Tip: Read the rules at the end before reading the actual book. Will save you a lot of googling!

A compelling look at the world of poker, through the eyes of journalist and broadcaster Victoria Coren. She details how she became hooked on the game from her early days playing for small stakes in smoke filled back rooms of pubs and clubs, right up to becoming the European champion. She has an uncanny knack of bringing to life the charachters that she has met through the years and the anecdotes are interesting, funny, and sometimes sorrowful.
