Chris Moorman reveals that his first strategy book, Moorman’s Book of Poker, is 80 percent completed, on target for its November release, and there is some exciting news concerning the foreword.
Are you a Chris Moorman fan?
Is the thought of his new book giving you tingles?
Are you starting to feel like a housewife with a pre-ordered copy of Fifty Shades of Grey?
Stop sweating. We have good news for you. D&B Poker (Chris Moorman’s publisher) has revealed that the book is nearing completion and will be published bang on time.
But there’s more.
Much more.
They’ve only gone and managed to get the Godfather of Poker to write the foreword. 10-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner, Poker Hall of Famer and veritable legend, Doyle Brunson, will provide the glittering introduction for one of the most anticipated poker books of recent times.
This book is going to be online tournament poker gold. To put Moorman’s achievement’s into perspective, consider that PokerNews recently broke the story that Shyam “s_dot111” Srinivasan became the third player to reach $7.5 million in online tournament earnings, whilst Moorman is heading towards his new milestone of $12 million.
“I have completed around 80 percent of the book and will be putting the finishing touches together throughout the rest of July,” said Moorman. “The content excites me and I am confident it will be well received when it’s published in November.”
Having Doyle Brunson write the foreword is the equivalent of Pele writing the foreword for a footballing book, Michael Jordan putting pen to paper on a basketball book and Tiger Woods doing likewise for golf.
How does Moorman feel about such an accolade?
“I was over the moon when Doyle agreed to write the foreword. He is a legend of the game and someone I have always looked up to,” said Moorman. “I remember when I first started playing poker. My friends and I would rail him whenever he sat in the high stakes cash games on Doyle’s Room. It was at this time I read Super System and it was his approach that got me to think about poker in a different light.
“Later, in my poker career, I was fortunate enough to not only meet the great man, but to hang out with him also. He is not only a phenomenal poker player, and an ambassador for the game, but he is an incredibly generous man, with a heart of gold and plenty of charisma. Doyle Brunson is poker, and I’m incredibly proud that he wanted to contribute to this project.”
