I would like to introduce you to a novel about the 64th World Series of Poker main event in the year 2033 and beyond. The reader will play in this coveted tounament through the eyes of an aging poker player, who learns to never give up, when it no longer seems possible to continue, as he comes full circle with his past. It soon becomes apparent that this man has more to worry about than being eliminated from this tounament, as his past could eliminate him from life itself. The events, leading up to our "hero's" unpredictable performance, revolve around the union of a Jewish New Yorker and a Christian Arkansan Coalminer's daughter. All of this set against the excitement of Las Vegas and the poker god's latest creation, The Final Table Resort.
