Cowboys Gamblers and Hustlers

Description   "Cheer for the young Texan as he sets the all-time speed record for roping a calf at Madison Square Garden in the 1950s. Ride along with the road gamblers as they fade the white line from Dallas to Shreveport to Houston in the 1960s in search of a score. Feel the fear and frustration of being hijacked getting arrested for playing poker and having to outwit card sharps and scam artists. Live the excitement of yesteryear as cowboys lose by a tenth of a second and gamblers lose by the luck of the draw. Byron ""Cowboy"" Wolford survived it all to win 30 belt buckles competing with rodeo legends Casey Tibbs Dean Oliver and hundreds of others and a World Series of Poker gold bracelet playing with poker greats Amarillo Slim Preston Johnny Moss and Bobby Baldwin. Saddle up with Cowboy as he spins his fascinating yarns about life on the rough and tumble live by the seat of your pants rodeo circuit. Ante up as he puts it all on the table recounting his colorful adventures as a road gambler and hustler gambling in smoky backrooms with poker legends Titanic Thompson Jack Straus Doyle Brunson and a thousand others. Then take a look through the eyes of an insider at vintage Las Vegas when Cowboys personal friend Benny Binion ruled Glitter Gulch. One things for sure: Youll get a kick out of the humorous and sometimes poignant tales-and one helluva education on hustling for a living-from the cowboy gambler who won the calf roping title at the Calgary Stampede two years in a row and three decades later pulled off the most famous bluff in World Series of Poker history. Endorsed by Jack Binion Doyle Brunson & Bobby Baldwin."   Details   SKU: NPS-TP-10-CP64 Weight: 2.00 lbs Retail price: $ 19.99 Our price is: $ 15.99 , save 21%   Add to Cart
