Hey Jim. Just finished PFS. Excellent work, my man; I loved how the whole book read like a Hold' em board-- intriguing flop (opening chapters), thrilling turn (the tournament itself), and shattering river (your honesty in the wrap up chapters). I just wanted to tell you, as a novelist myself, I thought the last line of the book was brilliant on multiple levels, but in particular this one: it comes off exactly like the river. You know it's over, you know where you stand, and you're absolutely blown away by the beauty of the game. Nice hand! (btw, I just found out about the film, that's awesome--been racking my brain who will play the lead-- Tom Hanks? A slightly grizzled Tom Hanks? Any thoughts? td
