Product Description
“The runaway winner as the best overall gambling encyclopedia written in the past 20 years.”—Detroit Free Press
Walk away from every casino a winner! Take it from Mensa, the society for people with high IQs: you don’t have to be a genius to triumph at the tables. Here’s the inside line on the games and bets that give the best advantage. Do you know whether to split a pair of aces in blackjack, which slot machines carry the worst payback for the player, and why losses are more significant at video than “live” keno? Beat the bank by understanding all this and more, including odds and probability, the “house edge,” money management, and gambling psychology. The chips will just pile up.
Do you enjoy flying through rings? Hope so, because this book will make you feel like you are! Rating: 5 / 5
This book gave good details into wagering online, however, I found that it lacked the details of a truely great betting book. It’s a little thin on the online world of betting.

This is a really great book. I got a lot out of it. All the games at the casino were covered. It also was entertaining to read. I highly recommend it. Rating: 5 / 5
The book is a really broad look at most casino games and really educates the casual gambler on not only which games to play, but the best way to play them. The casino will almost always have the edge, but this book gives casual gamblers a heads up to things may not have known and a fighting chance to win some money. Rating: 5 / 5
