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

"The book comes in two major sections. First you'll read a series of hand examples. These examples are designed to show you the difference between how a typical no-limit hold'em player thinks and how a professional-level player thinks. Each of these hand examples represents a small improvement you can make in your play. The second section turns the lessons from the first section into missions you can do on your own. These missions are the equivalent of recipes in a book on nutrition or exercises in a workout book. Doing the missions-doing them as often and using as much your brain on them as possible-are what will make you a better poker player. Do the missions, and you'll see results. Ignore the missions, and you likely won't." from the Foreword by Ed Miller -Author of Playing the Player, How To Read Hands At No-Limit Hold'em, Small Stakes Hold'em

Early in Dr. Brierly's career as a mathematician doing operations research for the US Department of Defense the author acquired an interest in investigating ways to optimize winning games of chance. He recognized that every gambling game offers a potential for applying probability and statistics to optimize bets. His first interest in this regard was devoted to picking winners at the harness horse races. After several years the author developed a computer system that essentially simulated a horse race based on race program data. He applied the simulation regularly for twenty years making a profit of 30 to 50 percent on bets every year. A future book will be offered that gives information on the author's harness race picking software. In the 1980s Dr. Brierly decided that he would write a computer program that gave advantage for winning lotteries. He invented and programmed a one-of-a-kind algorithm that finds the bias in any lottery based on its past outcomes. The lottery program titled BESTLOT underwent careful development until it reached perfection. No one has an algorithm that can do what the author's program BESTLOT can do. It is a unique copyrighted program that will only be available at the author's Ebay store DOULTONANDMORE. It is believed that serious lottery players will want to buy a copy of the software after reading this book that explains in depth how the author came within a 50-50 chance of winning ten million dollars using the BESTLOT software. Verification of the BESTLOT advantage may be observed at the author's website INTERJETIC.COM. In addition, at this website there are a number of research articles written by the author in both pure and applied mathematics. The author's biography may also be found at the hyperlink Acadbio found at his website listing a number of the author's awards along with his experience and education background. Viewers will find ample substantiation for the author's abilities to have accomplished exactly what he claims at his website.
