Raves and Reviews
"Holden is the top writer in pokerdom." -- Martin Amis
"A remarkable odyssey -- part Damon Runyon, part Dostoevsky . . . His insights into the peculiar alchemy of character and fate that draws writers to poker turns his book into a high-stakes psychological thriller." -- Vanity Fair
"Poker, as Anthony Holden astutely points out, is a lot like life. This idea informs his very funny book, with its priceless descriptions of hands, bluffs, and fellow players." -- Los Angeles Times
"Mr. Holden writes with extreme grace and wit . . . [Big Deal is one of the] best books on poker." -- The New York Times
"An entertaining tale, made all the more so by Holden's smooth prose and gift for self-deprecation." -- The Washington Post
