Description






Does God play cards with the universe? Do women have better
poker faces than men? What’s the most existential poker movie
ever made? Is life more meaningful when you go all-in? Is
online poker really still poker? Poker and Philosophy ponders
these questions and more, pitting young lions against old
masters as the brashness of Phil Hellmuth meets the arrogance
of Socrates, the recklessness of Doyle Brunson challenges the
desperation of Dostoyevsky, and the coolness of Chris Moneymaker
takes on the American tradition of capitalist ingenuity. This
witty collection of essays demonstrates what serious card sharks
have long known: winning big takes more than a good hand and a
straight face. Stacking the metaphorical deck with a serious
grounding in philosophy is the key to raking it in, because as
Machiavelli proved long ago, it’s a lot better to be feared
than loved, and lying is not the same as cheating.
