I bought this yesterday on my kindle ap. It's a great little story about a 'supposed' Lord Doyle who stole an inheritance and flies off to Macao to become a Professional Bacarat Player. There are some great characters in the book and it kept me hooked from beginning to end.
You can read a preview of several pages to see if you like it by clicking on the book.

cheers

Was there an American player in there that knew a Cambodian player and the Cambodian player was obsessed with finding a way to sneak the American player fired snake or snake soup without the other's knowledge?

Nothing like that Alrelax :))

But there is a lot of reference to 'happy lemonade' when the players start winning.

I also found out that I will be known as a 'Gwai Lo' should I ever decide to venture over to Macao.

We have to ask Ted about that, lots of his players over there I am sure. Maybe it is some kind of snake soup drink that is in 'ICEE' frozen form?
