Life's a Gamble: The Autobiography of a Poker Player
by Roy Brindley

Roy Brindley earns over GBP20,000 a week, lives in an incredible house and owns both a Porsche and a Ferrari. But he's not always had money to play with. In fact, he hasn't always had a home. Addicted to gambling, Roy spent his teens and twenties in the bookies and, week in, week out, gambled away his entire pay packet as he attempted to chase his losses. By the time he was twenty-eight he was on the run from the police and living out of a cardboard box in Southsea.In 2002 he finally ended up in court and decided to turn his life around.

After a chance viewing of the Hollywood poker film "Rounders", he at last put his phenomenal mathematical talent to constructive use, and his domination of the European poker circuit began. Containing hints, tips and helpful advice to turn you into a poker pro, this book is both an inspirational rags-to-riches story of a man who learnt to trust something other than lady luck, and a fascinating insight into the glamorous, celebrity-filled and ever-more-popular world of poker.
