Moneymaker's Book

Any of you see this yet? Saw it at B&N last night and did a double take. Skimmed it. First part's a brief bio, rest is mainly a recap of the 2003 Main Event(duh).

Very interesting to read his thoughts. Kid doesn't spare himself on stuff regarding his drinking, marital seperation, etc either.

Funniest part: He & his buds get so smashed at a strip club that night their bill is *$15K*. MM only has 5K. Manager ain't even trying to hear the "Dude, I got 2.5 mil in a box at Binion's." Won't let 'em leave. F'nly, this girl they'd been hanging with knows a famous poker player(guess who), calls him up and he brings down 10K.

Maybe it was the Matador, however, he used the 9k he had just wiped his ass with.

I did the same - checked it out while wasting time in Borders. Just read the last sections where he reflects on life after the tournament. I will give him credit - he's a realist and knows his own personal weaknesses and demons. You need to have that as a poker player.

I also have to give him full credit for using a Sports Night quote, though. ;-)
