Book Reviews of The Poker Face of Wall Street
Book Review: If you dont play poker, please give this book a pass
Summary: 3 Stars
Being a Chinese trader who's ignorant about poker, I could only complete the first few chapters and put it down. The large amount of poker jargon and geographical name just stopped me from reading onwards. In fact, this review is written with the sole purpose to warn fellow trader reader that this book is for those with definite knowledge and interest in poker. If you dont play poker at all, I strongly suggest you to give this a pass.
