Title Description James McManus was sent to Las Vegas by Harper's to cover the World Series of Poker in 2000, especially the mushrooming progress of women in the $23 million event, and the murder of Ted Binion, the tournament's prodigal host, purportedly done in by a stripper and her boyfriend. McManus instead risks his entire Harper's advance in a long-shot attempt to play in the tournament himself, resulting in this deliciously suspenseful account of the tournament, the players, the hand-to-hand combat, and his own unlikely progress in it. POSITIVELY FIFTH STREET is a high-stakes adventure, a penetrating study of America's card game, and a terrifying but often hilarious account of one man's effort to understand our competitive instincts.
