This book is for you only if you gamble to make money. If your idea of "fun" and "entertainment" includes giving away your hard-earned money to casinos, I can't help you. If you enjoy sitting in a mindless, bright lights/dinging trance while you drop quarters down a slot, this book is not for you. If you think casinos are built and run by stupid people, you better stay out of them. If you think you can beat a blackjack dealer by wild-assed guessing, think again. If you play poker just because it's now so popular . . . you don't need my book. If you believe you can just happen to be "lucky" enough to beat the odds, you live in a fantasy world and you'd hate this book for destroying your illusions. But if you're hard-headed, serious, willing to work, and tired of the mainstream gambling books that simply teach you how to lose less rather than win . . . If you understand casinos don't stay in business by giving out more money than they take in . . . This is an extensive examination of the most popular forms of gambling. If you can find any positive expectation bets, and how. Some of the material is controversial. Some of it is unique. It's not for beginners. If you don't already know how to play blackjack or craps, buy and read the basic books first. This one assumes you know and understand the rules of play. If you have emotional or psychological issues around money -- my strong advice is, don't gamble. If you want to believe casinos are playgrounds built for your amusement, this is not the book for you. I use statistical concepts and common sense to strip away the bright lights and glamor to reveal the mathematical realities of gambling. For the most part, it's not pretty. Not if you want to make money instead of lose it. But there are opportunities there for people willing to work hard and understand the obstacles so they can surmount them. If you're still an emotional child needing the adrenaline rush and excitement of "winning" money, this is not for you. Try out Gambling for Winners now.
The enjoyment of gambling doesn't go away with age, it may even intensify. Gamblers don't "age out" into other pastimes. Seniors have more free time, perhaps more money they're willing to spend on trivial pursuits, fewer family obligations, and less interest in scuba diving or rock climbing now that their bodies are feeling the effects of aging. Seniors play bingo at church, at the VFW, at their community hall. They buy lottery tickets. They go to sweepstakes internet cafes. Visiting a casino can be an entertaining day out when it's done right. Hopefully this book will help you or your favorite little old lady to "do it right."
Written by two former Las Vegas Keno Shift Supervisors, one of whom actually won ONE MILLION DOLLARS after hitting ten out of ten numbers on a $1.00 ticket at Boulder Station Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2005 Information for VIDEO KENO, LOTTERY KENO and CASINO KENO players everywhere. Also includes various playing methods players can use.
