Zen and the Art of Poker

Timeless Secrets to Transform Your Game
Inside the intriguing world of poker lies a fascinating
exercise in strategy and extreme concentration--many of the same
principles that underpin the one-thousand-year-old philosophy of Zen
spirituality. Zen and the Art of Poker is the first book to apply Zen
theories to America's most popular card game, presenting tips that readers
can use to enhance their game. Among the more than one hundred rules that
comprise this book, readers will learn to:
* Make peace with folding
* Use inaction as a weapon
* Make patience a central pillar of their strategy
* Pick their times of confrontation
Using a concise and spare style, in the tradition of Zen
practices and rituals, Zen and the Art of Poker traces a parallel track
connecting the two disciplines by giving comments and inspirational
examples from the ancient Zen masters to the poker masters of today.
