Dear Stefanie,I am anxiously awaiting the movie on your father coming out next week. I have read in many numerous places that a book by Nolan Dalla called "Behind The Shades" would be coming out, but I could never find an exact date or even timetable, but now I see that it will be out around WSOP 2005 so that is great news. I am looking forward to reading that book.Like many others, I first started watching poker in 2003 when ESPN began showing constant repeats of WSOP (not a bad thing), and I bought a book called Poker for Dummies. In this book, it had a section of the 10 greatest players of all time, and your father was obviously listed as one. It was the first time I had ever heard of your father, and I was so fascinated with his story, that I immediately had to google anything and everything on him that I could. What an amazing talent! I have ordered WSOP videos of the years your father won, so I can see exactly what it looks like to see a genius at work. You should be very proud of everything he accomplished, as he truly seemed like a special person that you only meet once in a lifetime. God bless you and your family.
