Available in paperback or hardcover. In 2003, an unknown accountant showed up at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. He’d never played in a live tournament before, and he had certainly never played against pros. But Chris Moneymaker, that unknown accountant, came out of nowhere, stormed the WSOP, and conquered the pros. In this series, readers will learn about the individuals who played in the early days of the game, as well as those who are today’s frequent participants at the final table. Each individual’s achievements and personal life is explored in pictures, in their own words, and in compelling narrative. Readers will learn how each of these motivated players made it to the top in their field.
