stu ungar biography

Hi

There are two Stu Ungar bios,

Man Behind the Shades : The Rise and Fall of Stuey 'the Kid' Ungar, Poker's Greatest Player

and

One of a Kind : The Rise and Fall of Stuey "The Kid" Ungar, The World's Greatest Poker Player

They are both written by Nolan Dalla but there is a co-author listed for the first one.

Are these the same book? If they are different, which one is better? (assuming you've read it of course.. )

Thanks

Theyre the same book, I can give you a lend of Daithios copy of the book if you like. Great read.

As far as i know it was originally billed as Man Behind The Shades (I had it on order for about six months pre-release). The it was advertised as One Of A Kind (I think because Bob Dylan has a book called Man Behind The Shades). Then it came out as Man Behind The Shades.

Perhaps Bob was big enough to let the original title go uncontested.

I read it in three days. It was good but I would have liked more cards / strategy / tournament.
