Default Poker Face

I recently read this book...

For anyone that knows...

Who was Z ?
What were the exact charges against Lederer in Vegas ? and what was his penalty ?
Does he still sports bet ?

By the way, the book sucks.

Thanks for the review. Apparently your comprehension skills are as bad as the book.

Care to elaborate....

You probably get more joy out of insulting me, but I would still like to know.

The book is actually quite good, I have no idea what would make you say it sucks.

The same comment could apply to your original post, and to the responses.

--It sucks.
--Does not.

This is a less than informative discussion on the merits of a book.

I had a few questions based on the book which I recently read. SevenStuda claims that they were explained in the book and I didn't comprehend. I challenge him to reference even one of the questions with a page number. I am sure he will just call me an idiot though....


As for my review, it is my opinion. I found the book depressing and poorly written. I am sorry for having a differing opinion.....

Depressing, maybe....poorly written, the book is very well written for a memoir.

LOL. The book is fantastically written. That's not even arguable.
