"... a half-dozen recent Stanford graduates and their friends, whose escapades, fueled by Rusty Nail and Green Apple cocktails, would delight Dean Martin." Smithsonian Magazine "For a few good belly laughs, read these true tales.... Amidst their PG-13-rated stories of ribaldry in Las Vegas, there is a surprising amount of intelligent discussion of poker." New York Times "... they dress in women's clothes and go to poker rooms. They think this is of great interest to other poker players. This strikes me as a rather pathetic, or at least sophomoric, attempt to get attention." rec.gambling.poker

A Fine Tiltboy Moment

I was in Vegas for the National Fantasy Baseball Championships (NFBC) last weekend. I brought two copies of Tales From The Tiltboys to give to a couple of friends in the industry. I had already autographed one for Jason Grey of Mastersball.com. The other was still in its original shipping package from our publisher for Perry Van Hook, with whom I bought into a $1250 entry league.

At dinner on last Friday night in a party of eight, I thought I would give Van Hook his copy. I got out the package and asked him if he'd like an autographed copy of Tales From The Tiltboys. He was quite enthusiastic. Others at the table are expressing curiosity.

I opened the package, got out the book, and the next question I had for Perry was, "OK, scratch that. How would you like a copy of Tales From The Miami Hurricanes Sideline by Jim Martz?"

If I wanted to order books based on form factor, it would have been a perfect substitute. Alas.

If you, dear reader, would like a copy of Tales From The Miami Hurricanes Sideline by Jim Martz, autographed by me, let me know by responding to this post. Leave email address so I can contact you. I'll even throw in the shipping. Hell, I might as well squeeze every bit of tilt out of this that I can. First response gets the book.
