POKER ACES: STARS OF TOURNAMENT POKER

Winner of the first WPT Battle Of Champions, Ron Rose takes a look at the stars who make the headlines from the world of tournament poker.

What immediately strikes you about Ron's work is the sheer size of it, not in terms of it's 180 pages but rather the dimensions of the book, it's not really something you could slip into your pocket for easy reference!

This is an excellent book for those who follow the stars of poker.  All the big names are in here with lots of interesting facts about each player, of course, the more seasoned the pro, the more interesting their story is.  Amarillo Slim's pages, for example, are very entertaining but you are left feeling more could of been added about players with such experience in poker and life in general.

The book is right up to date with recent winners, including pages for Greg Raymer, the main event winner at the 2004 WSOP and Chris Moneymaker from 2003.

British and European players get equal exposure.  The Hendon Mob have pages for each of their four members, Dave "Devilfish" Ulliot is in here, aswell as Sporting Life's very own Simon ACES Trumper.

The glossy feel and light hearted nature of the book make this an easy read.  Readers won't learn very much about poker, apart from the odd piece of advice thrown in by the stars now and again.  For fans of the game, especially those who love to watch tournaments on television, this book offer more of an insight into the lives professional players than any strategy based literature.

Poker Aces: The Stars of Tournament Poker is available for $29.99 from http://www.ron-rose.com
