big deal

I've just finished reading "Big Deal" by Tony Holdenhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=books&n=507846It was one of the most enjoyable books I've read in awhile. Infact, once I strted it, I actually didn't play any poker until I finished - I was that engrossed in the story. Of course, that was just one evening I skipped but still, it takes alot to make me do even that ;)If you're too lazy to check the link , it's the story of Tony Holden a Brit, who tries his hand at being a Pro for a year. Very entertaining and interesting but please ignore any reviews that say it'll make you beat such and such a game....Read it for what it is... a very enjoyable account of a guy giving it a shot and coming off ok.
