Rating:  Summary: My favourite gambling book (out of more than 50!) Review: This book has made me more money than any "How-to" book. The first time I read it, it was "only" entertainment. I thought "This was a really funny book, but I did not learn much". However, it was amazing how often I come to think of one passage or another while contemplating how to bet! I kept re-reading it, getting very useful hints on what to look for. It is now two years ago since I first read it and I got another one of these "flashbacks" while reading Ziemba's paper om horse betting markets. I though "Didn't they mentioned this in Gambling Wizards?" They sure did - along with one expert telling you why the PhDs model is flawed! All in all, I have been reading over 50 gambling books and this has given me the most help along the way - even though it is not even a "How to" book! My highest recommendation. Get ready to be both entertained and educated.
Rating:  Summary: The best gambling book of 2002 Review: This is an easy, fun and exciting read that will be enjoyed by anyone who's ever placed their fate in the hands of the gambling gods.After you read it, you'll soon realize that the real gods of gambling are the seven guys (that you've probably never heard of) featured in the book who learned early on that Lady Luck is a fickle broad who's best left at home.
