NYC Underground: Poker in Spanish Harlem
October 26, 2007 - No Comments I kept my head down and my hood up. Joe walked next to me, his eyes straining to see the numbers over the doors of the buildings.

Now, it was time to relax at one of the city’s famous coffeehouses.... Read More

October 21, 2007 - No Comments New York’s Upper East Side. Home to old money, overpriced boutiques, and expensive restaurants. Old buildings adorn the tree-lined blocks, and - unbeknownst to the normal person - New York’s largest, most successful card club is nestled six stories above street level. It was mid-July, and the city was hotter than a sauna in Cuba. I had arrived in town that night to meet with Adam, an old friend and poker buddy from college. Back at Brandeis,.... Read More
