“Confessions of a Poker Dealer” is a short history of Poker played in Casino’s since the late 1970’s. It covers from the late 1970’s when “Snatch” games ( the way casino’s robbed poker players ) were eliminated to the growth of poker throughout the 1980’s and 1990’s and finally to the “Television” generation starting in 2002 and creating millions of new poker players. The book looks at what is still today the biggest win in gambling history, $18.5M including $10M in poker play between a “degenerate” craps player who borrowed $30. to start his improbable triumph and beat four of the biggest names in poker one at a time in the early 1990’s. It’s also about Robert Varkonyi, winner of the 2002 main event at the World Series of Poker and the most influential player in the history of the game. And there are other fun stories about poker and gambling in general from 27 years in Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
