Publisher's Synopsis
When Molly Bloom was a little girl in a small Colorado town, she dreamed of a life without limits, a life where she didn't have to measure up to anyone or anything, a life where she could become whatever she wanted-and she ultimately got more than she could've ever bargained for. She became Hollywood's Poker Princess, forming the most elite high-stakes poker game the town had ever seen. She was its mistress, its lion tamer, its agent, and its oxygen. In Molly's Game, she takes listeners through her adventures running that exclusive game, catering to movie stars, athletes, billionaires, politicians, and financial titans. With rich detail, she describes a world of glamour, privilege, and secrecy in which she made millions, lived the high life, and fearlessly took on the mobs—until she met the one adversary she couldn't outsmart: the U.S. government. This is the story of how a determined woman gained-and lost-her place at the table & of everything she learned about poker, love, and life in the process.
