“You know how they say you can’t climb out of a hole till you hit bottom?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m trying to find the bottom.”
At seventeen, Denn Doyle isn’t old enough to gamble legally, but thanks to his talent for reading tells, he’s made a fortune — and along the way, he’s upset some of the most notorious Texas holdem players in Las Vegas, including Artie Kingston, who had already lost his nightclub to Denn. But now Denn’s luck has run out and he’s just about broke. His only chance is a million-dollar, winner-take-all tournament at Artie’s new casino, but Denn can’t play unless he comes up with the $10,000 entry fee. Denn’s future all comes down to one hand of poker.
National Book Award-winning author Pete Hautman introduced Denn Doyle in No Limit, of which School Library Journal said, “Fast paced and powerfully delivered…as taut and suspenseful as a high-stakes game.” Here he deals another hand of love, luck, and greed in the high-stakes world of poker.
