In der Kurzfassung der bislang umfangreichsten philosophischen Analyse des Pokerspiels werden die wichtigsten Konzepte kompakt dargestellt. Im Zentrum steht dabei der Gegensatz zwischen Verstand und Bauchgefühl, wie wir als Pokerspieler damit umgehen, und welchen Einfluss er auf die Spieldynamik selbst hat. Darüber hinaus soll aber auch die Frage geklärt werden, wie die Täuschung in Poker funktioniert und wie sie sich zu anderen Formen der Manipulation verhält. "Zufall und Lüge" stellt unser Erfahrungswissen auf den Prüfstand und bricht mit der Tradition herkömmlicher Pokerbücher. Stattdessen wollen wir einen Blick hinter die Fassade der Wirklichkeit werfen - denn nicht alles, was uns als objektiv gegeben erscheint, muss auch wahr sein.

Innumerable books have been written on declarer play. Far less attention has been paid by bridge writers to defense, which is the weakest part of most players' game. This book presents a series of problems in defensive play, the central theme being active versus passive defense. This problem may start with the opening lead, arise at Trick Two, or be a decision later during the play of the hand. Going 'active' when one should have remained 'passive' and vice versa is probably the most common defensive error players make, allowing contracts to slip thru. Some of the deals shown are more difficult than others, but they all contain a principle that can be applied in similar situations. After working on these problems and answers, the reader will find his defensive skills are enormously improved.

Casino games and traditional card games have rich and idiosyncratic histories, complex subcultures and player practices, and facilitate the flow of billions of dollars each year through casinos and card rooms, and between professional players and amateurs.
