Riassunto

Can you imagine betting a million dollars on a football game or winning seven million on a single horse race? Can you even fathom what it would be like to be the resident backgammon player at the Playboy Mansion or to win the World Series of Poker -- twice? How would you react if a gun-wielding casino owner demanded back the money that you won playing blackjack in his casino?

It's all in a day's work for the gamblers in this book.
