Talk:Big Deal: A Year as a Professional Poker Player

Notability issues

I removed the notability tag because this book meets the following criteria:

• The book has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the book itself,[5] with at least some of these works serving a general audience. This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries and reviews.

Big Deal has been referenced in several other poker books. I will have to go back and check my past readings to find specific refs, and will add those once I find them.

• The book's author is so historically significant that his or her works may be considered notable, even in the absense of secondary sources.

Anthony Holden arguably meets this requirement, even though he's not a household name.Alan 19:23, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
