The Poker Trip

A 33-year-old newspaper sports editor puts everything on hold (including his happy marriage) to go casino to casino across the country, trying to get in on the poker phenomemenon while it's still young. He's not sure how he'll fare, or what he's looking for, but he sure hopes he'll figure it out by the time he gets to Reno for the 2004 World Poker Finals ... or loses it all. It's one man's very personal take on the poker boom that's still reverberating across the nation, funny and heartbreaking, always entertaining.
