How to Win

Rating:
Summary: Goodman's good oil on everything about gambling
Review: If you gamble, this book will be probably be one of the best "investments" you'll ever make in reducing your losses and may even make you a winner. This is an easy to read, common sense book with something for everyone - from the novice to the seasoned gambler.

This American book was first published in 1963. The author, Mike Goodman touts himself as a professional. "How to Win" covers a wide range of gambling, from the casino to horses to poker machines.

The standout of the book is the black jack strategies. There is very sound, probability-based advice on how to play without card counting hassles. One of the most important and often overlooked aspects of gambling - money management - is also extensively covered. In a nutshell, Goodman's advice is bet more when you win and less when you lose.

In most cases, Goodman starts from the premise that in the case of Casino games, the house has an insurmountable edge. But, and here is the magic of his book, he offers sound, easy to apply advice on the best ways to play to minimise this house advantage.

I've been serious about gambling for 20 years and this book has been my betting bible. Buy it!
