"Running the Table" spins the outrageous tale of Kid Delicious, an affable, skilled pool shark from New Jersey, and his studly if less talented setup man, Bristol Bob. Wertheim follows this mismatched pair as they go underground to learn the art of the hustle while experiencing the highs and lows of life on the road. Their four-year odyssey takes them from podunk pool halls to slick urban billiards rooms across America, some nights taking down as much as $30,000 and others ending up with just enough gas money to get home. With every stop the action gets hotter, the calls get closer, and the Kid's prowess with a cue stick becomes more widely known. Ultimately he sheds his cover, becoming perhaps the biggest sensation in professional pool since Minnesota Fats. In a book sure to appeal to fans of "Bringing Down the House" and "Positively Fifth Street", Wertheim evokes a subculture full of nefarious but lovable characters and illuminates America's continued fascination with games and gambling.
