Al Alvarez touched down in Las Vegas one hot day in 1981, a dedicated amateur poker player but a stranger to the town and its crazy ways. For three mesmerizing weeks he witnessed some of the monster highstakes games that could only have happened in Vegas and talked to the extraordinary characters who dominated themroad gamblers and local professionals who won and lost fortunes on a regular basis.Set over the course of one tournament, The Biggest Game in Town is botha chronicle of the World Series of Pokerthe first ever writtenand a portrait of the hustlers, madmen, and geniuses who ruled the highstakes game in America. It is a brilliant insight into poker's appeal as a hobby, an addiction, and a way of life, and into the skewed psychology of master players and fearless gamblers. With a new introduction by the author, Alvarez's classic account is 'the greatest dissection of highstakes Vegas poker and the madness that surrounds it ever written' (TimeOut [UK]).
