Aaron Brown's Book阿龙布朗的书

Check out this well written piece on poker at Harvard in Harvard Magazine.看看这个好写在哈佛大学哈佛杂志上扑克件。 The author is an executive director at Morgan Stanley, who just published a book about poker and Wall Street.作者是摩根士丹利的,谁只是发表了一份关于华尔街的书扑克和执行董事。 This article is basically an excerpt of one of his chapters.本文基本上是一个对他的一章的节录。 There's a lot of name dropping (Bush, Scott Turow, Bill Gates), and its probably just a shill for his new book, but I found it an interesting read.有一个很大的名字下降(布什,斯科特图罗,比尔盖茨),其可能只是为他的新书抬价,但我发现一个有趣的阅读。

He calls the finals clubs “safe” — but having grown up in Boston, my experience with them was entirely violent.他呼吁决赛俱乐部“安全” - 但在波士顿长大的,我与他们的经验完全是暴力。 In high school I went to a friend's birthday party at one and had my leather jacket stolen.在高中我去一个朋友的生日聚会,一有我的皮夹克和被盗。 The best part of that night was finding the guy with my jacket down the street and when I pulled it off him and said “that's my jacket — it's from Sharper Image, right?” Don't laugh, I thought Sharper Image was the epitome of cool in 1985.在那天晚上被发现的与我在街上夹克的家伙,当我拉了下来,说:“这是我的夹克 - 这是从更清晰的图像,对不对?”不要笑最好的部分,我以为更清晰的图像是一个缩影冷于1985年。 So the guy drops the jacket and says “Sharper Image!因此,人丢弃外套,并表示“更加清晰的图像! That's my Tag!” lol.这是我的标签!“笑。 My girlfriend and I chased the trail onto a subway train full of 50 or so of this guys pal and I got punched in the face.我的女朋友和我追逐到一个完整的地铁列车的线索50多本家伙朋友和我的脸,拳打脚踢。

The next time I was in a finals club was college – my friend Cro-Mag and I jumped the wall in search of beer (and found it in the basement).下一次我在决赛俱乐部是大学 - 我的朋友克罗马- MAG和我跳了啤酒搜索墙(在地下室,发现它)。 Then when we couldn't get from the basement to the party, we ran into the front door crowd.后来,当我们无法从地下室到党,我们跑到门口的人群。 The front door guy, slight and short looked a lot like our friend, Rat-Boy.前门的家伙,瘦小看起来像我们的朋友,鼠男孩很多。 No matter how many times we repeated, “you look like Rat-Boy dude!”, we could not impress him.无论重复多少次我们,“你看起来像鼠男孩家伙!”,我们不能打动他。 He punched me in the face.他拳打在我脸上。

Maybe the poker games were less painful.也许扑克游戏是那么痛苦。
