    In 1977, ULVIS ALBERTS photographed the World Series of Poker at Binion's Horseshoe Casino for the first time.
    He returned to shoot the series for five more years. His first fine art photography book, Poker Face, was released in 1981.
    Poker Face 2 -
    a signed hardcover/boxed 25th. Anniversary edition was released in 2006.
    Ulvis' photography has been published in a wide variety of media around the world for almost four decades.
    "I consider POKER FACE 2 to be one of the definitive works in poker history.
    Part news, part high art, and part pure entertainment - POKER FACE 2
    provides a rare portrait
    into the grit and grime of the game of poker that is glossed over by television and unseen by the public.
    The chiseled faces, the disheveled looks of desperation, the ecstasy of victory and agony of defeat -- it's all in there.
    No other photographer other than Ulvis Alberts could have captured poker in its rawest, purest, and most astonishingly captivating form."
