The Bucky Challenge: Former Ad Exec Offers $23 for Reading His Book and Not Seeing The Matrix for 30 Days

"Poker Without Cards" author Ben Mack has offered a challenge; read his book and if you dont see The Matrix for 30 days, the author will mail you $23.

Atlanta (PRWEB) September 2, 2005 -- eXe Active Media, a distributor of quality arts and letters via new mediums, announced today Poker Without Cards author Ben Mack has offered a challenge: Read his book and if you dont see The Matrix for 30 days the author will mail you $23.

If you read "Poker Without Cards" from beginning to end and dont see The Matrix for 30 days, Ben Mack will mail you $23. This is not a gag. There isnt an image of The Matrix in his book. Similarly, while the author does reference the movie twice, thats not this deal.

The only trick is that by The Matrix" hes not talking about the movie, The Matrix; hes talking about seeing THE MATRIX.

Reading "Poker Without Cards" will make you see THE MATRIX, define THE MATRIX" however you want. If reading "Poker Without Cards" doesnt fundamentally alter the way you see the world, Ben Mack will pay $23 for wasting your time.

Readers must have read the book, either the $3.23 download or the $23 paperback, read the book in its entirety, and emailed the author that they have finished reading the book by Sept. 23, 2005 to qualify for $23. This offfer is only valid to U.S. citizens living in the United States.
