For many years he has been planning to assemble an in-depth study of all known card play techniques and their classification.

It has been my privilege to follow its progress and watch the book take shape. A book such as this should not to be put into a beginner’s hands, but it should become a well-thumbed reference source for all players who want to improve their game.
