The Tuttle Definitive is without a doubt Joseph J. Tuttle's best book yet. His horsemanship knowledge along with extreme betting savvy is conveyed page after page. It's my belief that this book can help the beginner/novice, but it seemed very obvious to me that the content was directed towards helping the avid/advanced horseplayer. The price of $29.95 truly isn't that outrageous, considering the amount of helpful content, and the total wordage (which is over 34,000). That makes this book seem like a steal, in my humble opinion

Hammer is a way to wager on a golf match. The game has evolved through generations in several different directions. This manuscript will cover multiple ways to play Hammer but certainly not all. References will be made throughout this writing to "our game" which simply means the game I prefer and the reasons why. I have been asked many times if I could put together a list of the rules to "our game" as it has become very popular. I often get calls from players at other clubs asking for a rule interpretation. Hammer becomes a game within a game. At the time of this writing, I am a 12.5 Index golfer but I am a scratch at Hammer.

Yet another winning method for playing Baccarat by long-time online player Patti Markow. Her methods are based on mathematical statistics, as opposed to the card-counting methods of other players. Sure-Win methods are not intended for professional players, but are meant for amateurs wanting to win a few hundred bucks from a night at the online casino.

Do you want to win significantly higher payouts while only making minimum table bets? Do you want to take advantage of favorable card counting situations without having to count cards? During 18 months, 15 Casino trips and about 200 hours of playing Blackjack Incremental Betting (BIB), I won $65 over 100 times; $325 over 25 times; $730 six times; and $1,550 once. However, it gets even better the more you play as simulations indicate that $10 minimum bet BIB players should, on average, experience a $8,930 winning streak every 2,000 hours; or one out of every 2,000 BIB players should, on average, win $8,930 every hour. An important feature of BIB is that only the Casino's money is at risk as soon as you start incrementing your bets. What makes increasingly larger bets less nerve racking is the same amount that your betting is already sitting with your chips and you have no idea how long your winning streak will continue. In fact, the chance of winning each next BIB bet is around 50%, no matter how many times you previously incremented your bet. From my point of view this adds a whole new dimension to the enjoyment of blackjack. You will usually be able to stay at a blackjack table longer than most players, even those with really deep pockets. It is a surprisingly easy thing to do. Play on

In any venture, 95% of the people are run of the mill and never truly get anywhere spectacular with their efforts. And that goes for any business venture. That leaves 5% of the people who will get to the top. 5% of the people in any chosen field will be successful. And out of that 5%, the upper fraction of 1% will be Super Successful. So how do you get yourself into that 5% of Casino Players who consistently make money ? This book is about learning the business of Baccarat and getting you into that UPPER 5%. It will give you an honest, straight forward look at a fantastic opportunity. Without the hype and without the one sided, twisted viewpoint of a salesman with ulterior motives.

This is a method used to double/triple an initially low bankroll, all things considered. Usually, Baccarat is a game meant for the "high roller." Not so in this case. Author has come up with a method to play and win with just $75.

When I host book signings and give lectures on lottery prediction, people always ask, If lotteries are random draws, how can they be predicted? I always answer the same way. Lotteries are predictable because we have the ability to redirect subtle energy. With about 20 to 30 people present, I always ask how many are familiar with subtle energies. No one has ever raised their hand. And, why should they It's only been within the last 30 to 40 years that Science discovered subtle energies and their role in manifesting human desire. It's only been within the last 10 years that this research and experimentation has been available to the general public in books like Lynne McTaggart's The Intention Experiment or Dr. Tiller's Conscious Acts of Creation. As a matter of fact, it has only been this year (2013) that Dr. Peter Higgs won the Nobel Prize for his work on the God Particle. The first subtle energy particle ever found at the new CERN accelerator. With these discoveries and experiments on the redirection of subtle energy, Scientists believe that a new technology has been born. Significantly more powerful than electromagnetic energy, significantly more powerful than nuclear energy, subtle energy technology will bring about new ways for human populations to interact, and new ways to communicate. It will significantly change our health care industry and influence the movement towards world peace. Most interesting, are the time and space attributes of subtle energy that allow the human mind to predict the future and consequently win lotteries. In the science of Quantum Mechanics, experimenting at the level of subtle energy, scientists found that their observations were affecting the outcome of the experiments. Somehow, the experimenter's consciousness was having an effect on our everyday reality of atoms and elements. This led to other experiments many concerning time displacement. As it turns out, subtle energy does not conform to the way you and I experience sequential time. Subtle energy is unbound by time and space - giving it predictive potential. A few daring researchers now understand subtle energy to be a vast field of potential energy supporting our everyday reality and somehow this energy is intimately interconnected with our minds. Consequently, at this stage of subtle energy technology research, researchers are studying ways that the mind can amplify subtle energies to manifest human desires for better health, wealth and abundance, world peace, lasting vitality, and prophetic vision. Dream a Lottery Win Tonight, specializes in the application of subtle energy and its prophetic vision attributes. We accomplish this by activating an energized intention near the mind's source of subtle energy. In this way, we amplify the intention to win a lottery. Of course, we could amplify any intention including those for better health or world peace. We decided on lottery prediction not because it was easy but because it was difficult and because the results are quantitative not subjective. In developing the skill of prophetic vision to win a lottery, we use an energized intention activated as close to the mind's Source of subtle energy as possible. To get close to the Source, we use mantras. These mantras resonate frequencies that are specific to the results we seek. In this case, we use the Lakshmi Mantra, used since antiquity to enhance ones abilities at games of chance. Once close to the source, we activate an energized intention. The intention is energized with emotion and bright sense visualizations. We perform this meditation just before retiring enhancing our dreams allowing us to predict a winning number. In this way, we use subtle energies to win the lottery. Larry Vingelman Author

Ten years ago 2003 to be exact I realize why players lose in Cash 3, Play 4, Fantasy Five, Mega Money, Mega Million, and Powerball. I always say if you know why you know how. Because I am a handicapper of parimutual (horses and greyhound). I knew my odds, and it was impossible for me to bet specifically on Powerball 175,000,000 to one (1). So I never won because under no circumstances I will play $2.00 I felt bad that everybody was losing so I decided to write a book about why you lose. Little did I know that is along the way, I will figure out how to win. Never cross my mind that was possible and it is, this book is the proof. Powerball is 2 lotto, lotto 1 of the Powerball is made of 59 numbers and the odds are 5,163,632.65 to hit 5 Lotto. 2 is composed of 35 numbers with mean you must hit 5 off the lotto, 1 and 1 of lotto 2 which is the Powerball when you mix 5 with 1 the Powerball 1 out of 35 the odds become 175,223,510 to 1 to win.

Every weekend throughout the fall, McCarran airport expels thousands of people on to the Las Vegas Strip. Many of these visitors come to Las Vegas to bet on football, hoping to profit from the obsession that overtakes their weekends from September to February. Many will return to McCarran a few days later, a little poorer but a little wiser. However another group, reveling in winnings, boards that departing plane with a belief they know more than those large casinos that dot the Strip; convinced they could leave behind their day to day life back in the town where they live, move to Las Vegas and make a living gambling on the sports they love. So, what would happen if someone actually did that? Swimming with the Sharps is a first-person account of an amateur trying to make a living via football gambling. Swimming with the Sharps follows David McIntire as he spends the 2012 football season in Las Vegas, chronicling what he learns and whether he wins or loses gambling on games every week. The book has two components. In part, it looks at the various components that make up sports gambling - such as developing a handicapping system, identifying when to bet or determining the size of a bet - and how professionals approach it compared to how McIntire handles it. McIntire talks with professional bettors, gambling journalists and bookmakers to understand what they have learned in their years in town while providing full transparency into his unique approach that straddles the worlds of amateur and professional bettors. Interspersed with this look at gambling fundamentals are the experiences of a football fan gambling each week in America's playground: days in sportsbooks surrounded by every character imaginable; insight into the lives of bookmakers who run these vast money-making operations; the joys of winning money; the pain of lost money and lost games for his favorite teams. There is no 20/20 hindsight on bets. McIntire writes about the games he bets on each week, gives
