This guy was crazy. I mean, really. C'mon! He gambled millions and millions of dollars and didn't really care about the money. He just wanted to win!

Cook is a sympathetic writer, and the book was very engaging. It's always weirdly fun to read about the underbelly of society.

Your following a gambler across 7 decades in the United States he’s lost more money than most will ever see and has a legend about him that would make Bo Jackson jealous, he’s not a Hero and he never wanted to be one. Like with Scarface sometimes you just gotta Cheer for the bad guy.It’s great to see him on top and sad to see him Low ,but in his own way he will look out for his people.
