Looking forward to both. Not sure how to feel about the Elezra book, especially reading more into posts here about the last 10 years for him. Will be an interesting read but will have to be taken with a big old pinch of salt.

I heard rumors that the players in Bobby's Room do not share a high opinion of Eli, he owed a ton of money years ago and never made whole. I'm just a small stakes live pro though, so what do I know?

Hi help:

While not definite yet, we’re hoping to have an “ask me anything” thread with Eli.

Best wishes,

For anyone who happens to be in the Bahamas right now, Eli will be doing a book signing tomorrow at 11am. The book costs $25, but the signature is free

Limited supply available.

So, why Eli and not TJ? I'd find the latter more interesting, to be honest. I have zero desire to read about Mr. Elezra, but maybe I'm in the minority.

We published the Elezra book, and did a lot of work to bring it to life, because when I reviewed the manuscript I found it quite interesting and felt that it was a story that needed to be told.

A Cloutier book would have to go through a similar process with a similar conclusion, and that’s unlikely to happen (especially since no book currently exists. Furthermore, Cloutier works with a different publisher, and if we actually wanted to do a Cloutier book, I would expect that publisher to claim first rights to it and it would not be worth our time to deal with that.

My burning question is how do you pronounce his first name?

When watching clips of him playing, I've seen some pros calling him "Ellie," while some call him "E-lie."

From page 7:

“Good luck Eli” (pronounced ee-lie). Everyone calls me that in America. It’s hard for them to pronounce the name correctly, “eh-lee.”

It's been a while since I've visited 2+2 and both of these books seem worth reading.

I haven't looked too deeply, but I was wondering if these books will be available in e-book format?
