The intent of Winning Blue-Collar Hold'em is not to put you at the final table at the WSOP or WPT. Instead, the intention of the author is to improve the play of the average low-limit/low buy-in Texas Hold'em player. Televised tournament final tables or high-stakes games distort the way average players approach the game. On TV you see only 10% of the action. The successful bluff or an improbable two out all-in is exciting, and thus will make the program, while you rarely see the player making the solid play, except when they lose to the two-outer. The other aspect players viewing televised poker fail to understand is that the style of play seen at the final table is not the same style of play that it takes to make the final table. This book takes you beyond the "What" of poker and provides you with the "How" and "Why" you need to become a winning low-stakes player. The use of poker aphorisms (pokerisms) throughout the book separates it from all of the other books on the market.

The object of this book, Any Given Day is to take the gamble out of sports gambling. The statistical probability system explained in this book is an objective system for both professional football and basketball. There is no guess work as the system is based on simple math and statistics.
The system was developed in the early 1950's while working with my father who taught physics and calculus in college. Coming together, a mining and civil engineer and a teacher, coach and athletic director, the system has been refined and brought up to date for todays sports.
February 6, 1005 which was Super Bowl XXXIX the exact score was predicted by the system, New England 24 and Philadelphia 21. Because of this, I was called gifted in Las Vegas. There are many games listed in the book that pick the exact score. How about week 10 played November 10, 2002 between Atlanta and Pittsburg. The system picked the game to be a tie. I called the game at 24 Atlanta and 24 Pittsburg. That became the final score after overtime. No game had ended in a tie for many years, and until this year, 2008, there had been no other.
This book is much more than just the winning football and basketball system as it covers sports gaming rules, sports talk, the type of wagers, and which to use and which to stay away from using. This is a real love novel because with one $10.00 two team parlay bet you will almost double the price you paid for this book.
The chapter, Beyond Stupidity, is enlightening as it gives the reader an inside look at the coaching world. A mistake by a coach can cause a loss, Where as, a mistake by a player may not. You will see why coaches are finally being paid more money than in the early years of pro sports.
Money Management is a very important chaper for any phase of life. Remember Pigs get fat, and hogs get slaughtered. Self-discipline, self-control and mental strength is a large part of money management. Here is where we will talk about a few tricks of the trade.
As in any business or job, there are trade secrets that can help make a winner.
In this chapter, we will show how to set short and long term goals. How to play both teams playing in a game and win with both. Here you will also see how to bet without losing any money. You will either win or break even.
Nothing in this world changes over night, and if it does change for a short time it is called an upset. There are lotteries in many states where you pick all or a number of games. This book will tell you how to play these.
The last chapter will review the 2004-2005 Season. We will go week by week and show who, why, and how we picked the game and team to bet.
Although, over the past 7 years, in picking all of the National
Ffootball League games the winning percentage is 70.67%. In basketball, over the last four years, by playing the teams, that fit into the system, a fantastic 86.3% have been winners. It only got better in 2009 as the system picked 93% winners, 134 wins out of 144 games.
The book will show that at one point out of 21 plays the system picked 20 wins and 1 tie. These were parlay combinations using 45 teams. Another 4 week group of plays will show 24 wins with 1 tie using 54 teams in parlay combinations.
Once you have mastered this easy system, you will be able to rate 16 games in 20 minutes. This is recession proof and does not require a bail out. Also, you will never need to pay for tips again. You will be the handicapper

This work is a complete mathematical guide to lottery games, covering all of the problems related to probability, combinatorics, and all parameters describing the lottery matrices, as well as the various playing systems. The mathematics sections describe the mathematical model of the lottery, which is in fact the essence of the lotto game. The applications of this model provide players with all the mathematical data regarding the parameters attached to the gaming events and personal playing systems. By applying these data, one can find all the winning probabilities for the play with one line (for each category in part or cumulatively), and how these probabilities change with playing the various types of systems containing several lines, depending on their structure. Also, each playing system has a formula attached that provides the number of possible multiple prizes in various circumstances. Other mathematical parameters of the playing systems and the correlations between them are also presented. The generality of the mathematical model and of the obtained formulas allows their application for any existent lottery (including variations like Keno) and any playing system. Each formula is followed by numerical results covering the most frequent lottery matrices worldwide and by multiple examples predominantly belonging to the 6/49 lottery. The listing of the numerical results in dozens of well-organized tables, along with instructions and examples of using them, makes possible the direct usage of this guide by players without a mathematical background. The author also discusses from a mathematical point of view the strategies of choosing involved in the lotto game. The book does not offer so-called winning strategies (proving that the only strategy is that of choosing), but helps players to better organize their own playing systems and to confront their own convictions (so many times based on false perceptions) with the incontestable reality offered by the direct applications of the mathematical model of the lotto game. As a must-have handbook for any lottery player, this book offers essential information about the game itself and can provide the basis for gaming decisions of any kind.

A riveting inside look at the lucrative world of professional high-stakes sports betting by a journalist who lived a secret life as a key operative in the world's most successful sports gambling ring.

When journalist Michael Konik landed an interview with Rick "Big Daddy" Matthews, the largest bet he'd placed on a sporting event was $200. Konik, an expert blackjack and poker player, was no stranger to Vegas. But Matthews was in a different league: the man was rumored to be the world's smartest sports bettor, the mastermind behind "the Brain Trust," a shadowy group of gamblers known for their expertise in beating the Vegas line. Konik had heard the word on the street -- that Matthews was a snake, a conniver who would do anything to gain an edge. But he was also brilliant, cunning, and charming. And when he asked Konik if he'd like to "make a little money" during the football season, the writer found himself seduced . . .

So began Michael Konik's wild ride as an operative of the elite Brain Trust. In "The Smart Money," Konik takes readers behind the veil of secrecy shrouding the most successful sports betting operation in America, bypassing the myths and the rumors, going all the way to its innermost sanctum. He reveals how they -- and he -- got rich by beating the Vegas lines and, ultimately, the multimillion-dollar offshore betting circuit. He details the excesses and the betrayals, the horse-trading and the paranoia, that are the perks and perils of a lifestyle in which staking inordinate sums of money on the outcome of a single event -- sometimes as much as $1 million on a football game -- is a normal part of doing business.

The theories are explained clearly but what really sets this book apart is its focus on the practical realities of trading. Whether you are a novice or experienced trader, the author's insights will help you towards increased profits from your sports-arbitrage trading project.
