Strip Rules

Praise for Strip Rules

“God bless Martin Limón for reinstating gambling as one of America’s great vices. Strip Rules’ menagerie of card cheats, ex-military wing nuts, and connivers manages to mark a win for humanity. Limón’s latest is more fun than cheating at solitaire, and with a bigger payoff. Strip Rules has it all in spades.”
—Ed Lin, author of The Dead Can’t Make a Living
