An absolutely fascinating account of the world of professional poker. Maria Konnikova is a novice at the outset (though no intellectual slouch since she is a writer for the New Yorker) and she then tries to make the World Series of Poker in her first year of playing. Does she succeed? That would be a spoiler! Loved the clear writing and the insights into the game-- I was rooting for her all the way through.
One of my top books I read in 2021.
