Lamont Jones

Lamont Jones, author of The Gist of Bid Whist, is a card game enthusiast and boxing business attorney. Lamont maintains that the deals most meaningful to him are not those he's negotiated or litigated on behalf of boxing managers, promoters, or champions.

He wrote The Gist of Bid Whist because he believes that card games connect people, and that the rich story of Bid Whist is one that deserves to be widely known. Learn more at www.gistofbidwhist.com
