In 1987, there was legalized poker in Nevada and in one county of California. Author Jesse May was seventeen years old and already hooked. By 1996, poker could be legally played in casinos in over twenty states of the union and five countries in Europe. Legalization changed the face of poker, and as the game came of age, so did May, who by 1989 had dropped out of the University of Chicago after one year due to irreconcilable differences between Tuesday- and Thursday-morning classes and Monday- and Wednesday-night poker games.

Based on his experiences in the strange world of poker, May's debut novel Shut Up and Deal is the story of a nontraditional '90s slacker, a dropout with an incurable obsession and incredible stamina, who makes a career in a profession where the only goals are to stay in action and to not go broke. In Shut Up and Deal, a professional poker player takes readers along on his adventures over several years in and out of casinos and card rooms in locales such as Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Amsterdam.

Told in a catching, likeable voice, this story offers up one rip-roaring poker-table drama after another, with narrator Mickey ultimately finding himself in a spot that jeopardizes his entire bankroll and calls into question his morals, such as they are. In rhythmic, high-octane prose that is as addictive as the game it describes, Shut Up and Deal zooms in on the swirling, feverish microcosm of the contemporary poker world from its very first line and never cuts away.

Gift for granddaughter
Size: Large, Color: Mauve/Butterflies
My granddaughter likes these tops. They are sturdy, comfortable and soft. She loves the ruffles on the shoulder. They were reasonably priced and I feel they will last. Look good after a number of washes.

Shrank after one wash
I wanted to love these but they shrank in the washer after one wear. Now they are above my daughters wrist, too small. They do feel good, and have a nice thickness. From initial unpackaging I expected we’d have these in rotation for a while. Looks and feels like a quality buy, until washing. I’ll be saving them for a younger child but my intention was for the oldest. I’ve been trying out the Amazon Essentials brand clothing for kids. Seems to be hit or miss, haven’t come across anything I absolutely love.

Good Quality

Beautiful tops. Material is good quality. Fit is a little small but still fits well. All in all it is excellent quality for your money.

Cute staple shirts, run small
Size: 2T, Color: Black/Ivory
Cute shirt with soft material, good quality for price. However, they run small. For reference, my daughter is typically in 18m- I bought size 2T in these shirts and they are still short on her. They raise up on her belly if worn with regular pants. For this reason, I use them mostly under overalls, vests, dresses, etc

Great addition to wardrobe but size up is likely needed.
Size: Large, Color: Navy/French Stripe
Why did you pick this product vs others?: These are super cute, but you may want to size up at least 1 size as they are more of a fitted style and fabric.
