Rating: Summary: Excellent Book, It Worked for Me !!! Review: ... I have only been a sports bettor for the past 3 months and this book has changed everything for me. I used to just look at some statistics and I thought I knew what I was doing, but my winning percentage was still hovering around .500. Now that I've read this book and learned how to bet like the pros do, my winning percentage is .765! I've also learned how to manage my money and when to bet big. This is the sports betting bible, and only those that don't know about it are probably just guessing when they bet. I will never bet on a "hunch" ever again. This book has really opened my eyes to what is possible when betting on sports.
Rating: Summary: Bad Bet Review: I took a gamble buying this book on positive feedback from others - I lost. Lots of ryhmes, many words in CAPITALS, even a picture of the author circa 1949 but unfortunately very little useful information on how to systematically implement winning sports betting methods.
Rating: Summary: Circa 1900? Review: Please keep in mind this "book" is not really one per se. It is a rag-tag grouping of previously written columns by McCune and neither the book nor the columns were apparently edited as there are numerous spelling and wording errors throughout. Similar content is repeated throughout the book many times. Also the author feels the need to introduce each section with a REALLY bad poem and often goes quite off-topic in trying to establish a point related to sports betting. This might be a decent book for somebody who is just starting out in the world of sports betting. You learn what juice is, how a local bookie might shade a hometown line etc. However all the information was written at least 10 years or more ago. As sport-betting moves into a new era, the usefulness of this dated information is questionable but it was frustrating to sit through reading. In short, there is very little worthwhile about this book for a more advanced player with a semi-decent understanding of mathmatical probability.

Rating: Summary: Things to know before you throw money away Review: This is a great book about sports gambling, giving the sports player allot of knowledge about sports gambling, plus some edges to look for. It give straight facts, no BS. This is a must read, I learned about 5 or 6 ideas to use at sports gambling.
