Downtown Las Vegas poker fans know this week's guest by their action. Sam O'Connor, author of How to Dominate $1 and $4 No-Limit Hold'em and Tales of Old Vegas, writes regularly for Poker Pro magazine. His favorite subject is the character known as The Duke, a tight player who has mastered the no-limit game by playing it by the book. Both men spent their afternoon discussing poker strategies, poker people, poker stories and everything else poker. Howard started the conversation with Sam, but soon the three of them were talking like old friends sitting on at a sidewalk cafe, sipping an after-dinner drink and sharing their knowledge and experience. This, the last podcast of 2009, was a fitting broadcast.
