Inside the
intriguing world of poker lies a fascinating exercise in strategy and
extreme concentration -- many of the same principles that underpin the
one-thousand-year-old philosophy of Zen spirituality. Zen and the Art
of Poker is the first book to apply Zen theories to America's most
popular card game, presenting tips that readers can use to enhance
their game. Among the more than one hundred rules that comprise this
book, readers will learn to:
-- Make peace with folding
-- Use inaction as a weapon
-- Make patience a central pillar of their strategy
-- Pick their times of confrontation
Using a concise and spare style, in the tradition of Zen practices
and rituals, Zen and the Art of Poker traces a parallel track
connecting the two disciplines by giving comments and inspirational
examples from the ancient Zen masters to the poker masters of today.
