gfdsa146 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Hey everyone, I'm doin a paper on him Stu Ungar, my prof's a poker player and was coool enough to let me do the report on him, and I need some research sources on him. I've seen High Roller, and I'm on the way to Barnes and Nobles to read Nolan Dalla's "One of a Kind" book. Anybody know any other things i should look into?Also, I know that the report is gonna be on Ungar, but thats about it. Anybody have any suggested topics i could do on Ungar?One topic I got so far is to show the difference between movie-version of Ungar vs real accounts of him (which i could probably get from Mike Sexton or some other old-skool pro).

Sheiky 0 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 www.pokertube.comI think there was a documentary about him on there, or if not search on youtube.I know a brief recapp of his life, and also Howard Lederer mentioned in his Full Tilt pro chat that he was one of the worst high stakes cash game players because of his lack of patience/targets.

Mercury69 3 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Stu has a Wiki page.i would suggest including his Gin wizardry, as well as spending some time on the concept of "eidetic memory", aka photographic memory, which is a bit of a misnomer, as eidetic memory incorporates "material" you haven't yet seen (eg: you've seen about 60 cards from a 6 deck blackjack shoe...based on your ability to calculate and recalculate odds, you're beginning to get a better idea of what's coming...see what I mean?).
