This book begins with my day of sentencing. I had been practicing
law in Henderson, North Carolina for ten years and on this day I am
in court for armed bank robbery. I share what this day was like as
well as prison life. While confined, I came to the realization that
I was a compulsive gambler. I share my background of growing up in
a small rural area in Eastern North Carolina and the details of how
my gambling began and more specifically the card game of poker.
Recounting and sharing many aspects of my life were painful but
then there were other aspects that were a joy. Sharing my mental
hospital experience and the sharing of the crime were difficult.
But sharing where I am now and how blessed I have been were moments
of joy. It is about this thirty-six year old lawyer who had been
practicing law for ten years but because of unwise choices, flawed
judgment, terrible foresight and bad habits, eventually ends up in
prison. I end this book by attempting to show that in the face of
adversities, one can still overcome and be successful, if he has
the determination, perseverance and faith. The book in not intended
to be a detailed autobiography but rather a life of gambling;
especially, the card game of poker.
