it won't help you beat a turk but it will definitely get you past the israelis in the park and i promise they won't be happy with you. i read this to beat roy but it's worth having a hardcover just b/c the cover image is just fantastic--even better than the title, if you could believe that claim. even if you don't need to beat roy, even if you're not an opponent-starved only child, even if you're an israeli that pretends to prefer cribbage on long saturdays, even if you have an interesting social life, no...scratch that last one...forget it. go play poker i suppose.
