Winning at poker is not just analysis, clever tactics, not even inspired bluff, although Total Poker examines in great depth what makes up these various elements. Ultimately luck works out the same for everyone, there really is no such thing as good cards or bad cards; winning is a psychological decision and up to each player. Whether you play poker for pennies around the kitchen table or want to bet big money against the high rollers in Las Vegas, Total Poker will put your game right.


David Spanier was a journalist on The Times where he had a long and distinguished career, from 1957 to 1982, as Diplomatic Correspondent, later changing careers to become a broadcaster with LBC. But it was his love for chess and poker which were the major influences on the later part of his professional life.

His books include The Gambler's Pocket Book (1980), Easy Money: Inside the Gambler's Mind (1987), All Right, Okay, You Win: Inside Las Vegas (1992), The Little Book of Poker and his memoirs, The Hand I Played.
