Venture Literary Sells PokerStars Strategy Guide to Kensington.

On April 2, 2009, Frank R. Scatoni of Venture Literary sold the World rights to Nolan Dalla’s The PokerStars Strategy Guide to Richard Ember at Kensington.

In The PokerStars Strategy Guide, poker fans and players get a unique “how to” for the remarkable and lucrative world of online and live poker. This one-of-a-kind strategy guide—approved by the most respected online poker site, PokerStars—reveals what techniques really make money in poker, as demonstrated by many of the world’s most successful poker players themselves, including Chris Moneymaker, Greg “Fossilman” Raymer, Joe Hachem, and current World Series of Poker champion Peter Eastgate.

Each player will discuss how they’ve succeeded in the world’s toughest game, and they’ll divulge the methods they used to achieve that success and their ultimate victories. Poker superstars Daniel Negreanu, Barry Greenstein, and Vanessa Rousso will also disclose their strengths and weaknesses and convey helpful tips for those who aspire to improve their game.

Moreover, real online poker players—called “SuperNovas”—reveal for the first time how they make a seven-figure living by playing online poker. What do they do that’s so different from everyone else while beating the online game? What secret knowledge do they possess that allows them to earn ten times the average annual salary of someone working a conventional job? Online poker has become a booming business. This how-to guide by online poker’s biggest name—PokerStars—will be the definitive poker book for the next decade.

PokerStars consultant Nolan Dalla will compile the strategies of PokerStars’ best players. Dalla is the critically acclaimed author of One of a Kind: The Rise and Fall of Stuey “The Kid” Ungar, the World’s Greatest Poker Player, which is currently being developed as a feature film. Dalla is also the Media Director for the World Series of Poker, so he has access to major media outlets as well as the cachet of the greatest poker tournament in the world.
