Know When to Hold 'Em and When to Scold 'Em

Mark Borowski, a father of two children and World Series of Poker player, has released a book which he claims demonstrates a link between playing your favourite card game and good parenting.

In 'Big Slick Daddy: Poker Strategies for Parenting Success' Borowski illustrates his claim with the knowledge gained in over 20 years of card-playing, alleging that the same strategies that help a player win at poker can help readers win at parenting.

Amongst the themes covered in the book is the necessity of going �all in� with children. �In poker, going all in means committing all of your chips to the outcome of one hand, which is thrilling when you win and chilling when you lose,� said a spokesman. �In parenting, going all in means making significant, enduring commitments to your kids that will pay off in the long run.�

Other tips include �Don�t bluff your kids� and �Play no-limit poker but play limit parenting.�

�Big Slick is an Ace and a King, one of the best hands in poker, and this book helps fathers create a successful parenting hand,� added the spokeman. �Read it and reap.�

Autographed copies of the book can be ordered directly at the author's website: www.BigSlickDaddy.com.
