4.0 out of 5 stars Only skimming this, but i like the beginning...

I got it because it was cheap during a promo and i thought it might be an interesting read, given that i occasionally do viist a local casino (no more than once per month). The intro alone related to the way i feel about casinos - they are an "entertainment expense" and a relatively good value for the money you spend (or "lose"), and if you happen to win, great but don't count on a magic solution to beat the odds. I suspect this book goes into where the odds are the best, but i also suspect from what i've seen it'll tell you the odds are always in the casinos favor even in the most "skilled" games. I'm a slot player myself, removes the illusion that i have any influence on the outcome, keeps me grounded in that it's nothing more than a scratch-off-lottery ticket without the scratching.

3.0 out of 5 stars Maybe an intelligent guide but very basic, limited application and lacking value
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2011

This book is newer compared to many other comprehensive casino books online so I was hoping to have an intelligent and up to date review of casino gaming. The sections are short and descriptive and possibly intelligent by some definition however for the price, there many other books that can provide additional value. While this book states the definitions of various casino games it is lacking for people who want to know more on how this applies to the games themselves. The examples are lack luster and has no appendix with helpful items other books have like the BlackJack basic strategy sheets and such.

You can save yourself money by buying another comprehensive book on casino games that atleast provides additional helpful information instead of just having the essence of the games explained to you... but not really how to incorporate that into how the play the games once you arrive at a casino.

If have no idea what gambling is because you lived under a rock, this book might be helpful... but at that point there are better books that explain more out there that you could buy for a lower price (and a better value). Look for a used copy of this book (probably will be mine soon) as it is not worth the full price for the basic information it provides.

I really liked this book because it explained the rules of the game very clearly, if you're like me who's just trying to learn the rules of the games.

5.0 out of 5 stars A refreshing change of pace!
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2011
A refreshing change of pace! A writer who doesn't insult the intelligence by claiming he can teach you how to overcome the house advantage that is built into every gaming venue and almost every betting situation.

He points out some of the few betting situations where the betting advantage actually passes to the casino patrons and explains why the casino patrons have the advantage in such situations. He also explains how the casino coupons, comps and discounts are set up and how to get maximum value for your buck while in a casino. He concludes the book with a nice summary of the best and worst bets in a casino.
