Getting Lucky is the second poker book penned by Richard Sparks. His first book was written in a diary style and led readers through his pursuit of qualifying for a WSOP Main Event. Now he's sharing another saga as he continues to pursue his poker dreams - educating himself along the way.

Nothing wrong with those things at all, but for the casual player ready to quit his or her day job after they win a few hundred bucks at an online poker tournament, a closer look at what it takes is a smart move.
