What is this book about?

Maverick reveals the secrets of the world’s most exciting game. One of the most common misapprehensions about Maverick is that he is a gambler. Actually, poker is the only game of chance he’ll play, because poker, in the hands of an expert, is not a matter of luck. The man who plays odds instead of hunches can always count on winning in the long run. If you are interested in the fine art of poker-playing as a game of skill, patience, and animal cunning, you’ll not only enjoy this book—you’ll profit from it.
