Default Re: How to hollow out a book

Just reminded me of the scene in "Harold and Kumar" when Kumar opens up his MCAT textbook to go to get his stash of weed.

Haha

Default Rounders..had a great example

If I remember correctly, in the opening scene of Rounders (the quintessential poker movie), Matt Damon opened up a secret stashbox with Caro's Book of Tells.

Ever since that scene, I had thought of doing that myself..but it's got to be done with a major classic poker book. Other than Caro's book, I put my vote for Theory of Poker, Supersystem 1 (with the original hardcover) or The Biggest Game in Town by Alvarez.

You can buy "book safes" on Ebay for like $10 bucks. Dont be a tard and pay a deliberate homage to Rounders.

You must have a very small bankroll if you're keeping it in this book.

What a great idea! And to think, I've been putting my valuables in a silly tamper-proof electronic/four-head keyed safe.
