When Ron Rose began playing tournament poker in 2000, he knew the names of all of the top pros but nothing more. After playing for a while, he got to know most of them and found that they had plenty of interesting tales to tell. When he started winning tournaments and especially after televised poker exploded onto the scene, Ron discovered that the fans had a lot of questions for him and the other players about how they got started, why they got started and what they were all about. Realizing that there were plenty of books about how to play poker, but not one on the shelves that might tell the fans a little bit about the players, this former businessman set out to fill the gap with a book that would showcase some of the foremost tournament players from around the world. That book is Poker Aces. Poker Aces gives its reader an insight into the personal and professional lives of the pros you see on TV and in the poker rooms of the world. It lists their major accomplishments, personal notes and even poker tips along with a two page story from the pros themselves. It's a resource that should satisfy the curiosity of poker fans everywhere.
