Congrats! Just curious, but do you happen to know how many or what percentage of those were sold in the last 3 or 4 years?

Wow, that's an explosion for sure. The power of TV. LOL!

I can remember sitting in the Mirage in '99 thinking "TV poker would be awesome if you could have one of the players cards shown to you to play along..." Then WPT came along.

But, guess that means back in the Pre-WPT days my copy of "The Theory of Poker" would've given me some edges... I don't think outside of "The Gambler's Book Club" most folks even new about this sort of literature.

Now there's 2+2 books at Barnes and Noble.

Amazing, since around 2000-ish I can remember poker dealers saying "Ah dude, the rise of local poker has been killing Vegas Poker, no one comes out here to play anymore".

What a turnaround.

So tell me Mason, can you ride the tram between Monte Carlo and Bellagio these days and not get mobbed like a rock star? I can recall seeing you commuting in those days and seemed like most folks didn't even recognize you. You always seemed surprised when I'd say "Hi Mason"... as though you weren't expecting to get recognized.

Hi Everyone:

We just sold our 1 millionth book. That's quite an achievement for a company like ours, and of course we couldn't do it without all the support we have gotten over the years. So in addtion to making this announcement, we wanted to thank all of you.

Best wishes,
Mason

Hi Shandrax:

The 1,000,000th customer was Borders. So it's hard to give them anything specific.

best wishes,
Mason
