Lena Evans went out with a mission: to find and pick some of the top brains in poker and turn their knowledge into a book anyone can use to unlock untapped potential. And, boy, did she pick some brains.
Before she was finished, she had recruited a startling list... Patrik Antonius, Lara Eisenberg, Kristen Foxen, Lexy Gavin-Mather, Barry Greenstein, Vanessa Hellebuyck, Phil Helmuth, Maria Ho, Linda Johnson, Bernard Lee, Jeff Madsen, Chris Moneymaker, Brian Rast, Greg Raymer, and Marsha Wolak
The result? The Poker Powered Brain, a book that shot straight onto Amazon bestseller lists. (You can read an excerpt from the book here.)
Now you can meet Evans and some of her contributors in person in the PokerOrg Legends Lounge.
- When: 11am-12pm, Thursday June 26th
- Where: The PokerOrg Legends Lounge at the Horseshoe
- Who: Lena Evans and her contributors to The Poker Powered Brain
