Big Slick begins with Andrew Lang stealing money from his
dad's dry cleaning company.  After he loses that money in a
Texas Hold'em game, Andrew steals more in the hopes of
winning it back in another poker game.  Andrew digs himself
in deeper when he finds some "crack" and tries to sell it
on the street.  This causes Andrew even more trouble and he
ends up selling it back to the drug dealer.  With his new
stash of cash, Andrew takes off to another casino to try to
make enough to payback his dad.  Andrew wins at the tables
and returns home only to find out he's too late.  His Dad
already discovered the missing money and punishes Andrew.
 

Opinion: 

Big Slick started slow with details of each poker hand
he played.  The book gets going then has a few unexpected
twists and turns.  The book has some questionable
content.   There are drugs, drinking, gambling, and bad
choices.  Besides the bad content, the author provides an
interesting storyline.
