Amarillo Slim's memoir, Amarillo Slim in a World Full of Fat People is now on sale. You may have seen in Sunday's Las Vegas Sun that Nicolas Cage is attached to play Slim in a soon-to-be produced film about Slim's life.

On May 6, Slim will be on the Don and Mike syndicated radio show at
3:45 Eastern time. He will also be on the Best Damn Sports Show Period on Fox Sports that night. You can see his entire list of appearances (which I'll update regularly) at www.thepokermba.com/amarilloslim.
He'll be on the Jimmy Kimmel show on May 22 with Willie Nelson and is slotted to be on Letterman as well.

To get your copy of the book autographed by Slim, he'll be at
Hollywood Park on Wednesday, May 7 from 1-4 p.m. and at Binion's

It's great, you should all go out and buy it (Thanks again Greg for the advance copy). Great story of Slim's various exploits, and I found the history of the WSOP (and Las Vegas in general) to be very informative.
