Positively Fifth Street, by James McManus


One Sentence Synopsis:
Non-fiction tale of a regular guy who writes a story about the Binion's World Series of Poker while almost winning the whole thing, set against the backdrop of the Ted Binion murder trial in Las Vegas.

B+ (contributor)

Some of the story lines dragged for me (particularly the sections about his family), but the portions where this Everyman is playing the best/luckiest poker of his life across the table from WSOP legends is a thrill ride. I dare you to read this book and NOT long to get a regular game of poker going...I dare you!
