Poker: Bets, Bluffs and Bad Beats
Poker: Bets, Bluffs and Bad Beats
Al Alvarez
Depicts a subculture rich with legend - from the no-limits Hold'em game to the late 20th-century World Championships in Las Vegas. Its terminology underpins modern life: Alvarez tells us "passing the buck" came from the baize table, as did "bluff", "above board", and "something up your sleeve".
