POKER HITS THE MAINSTREAM PRESS

Dedicated column started in NY Times

The poker craze has hit mainstream media with a weekly column scheduled for the New York Times starting this week.

Commencing Saturday, the New York Times will begin running a weekly poker column, written by author and writing instructor James McManus. The column, plainly titled "Poker," will appear in the Times' sports section each Saturday, and will cover a range of the game's appeal, including the strategy and psychology involved in home poker games, online poker, as well as major land-based tournaments.

McManus made his mark on the world of poker when he entered the 2000 World Series of Poker (WSOP) as part of a piece he was writing for Harper's magazine. Although his participation had initially literary motivations, McManus ultimately came in fifth at the tournament, taking home $250,000.
