Boxing was popular in the American West long before Las Vegas became its epicenter. However, not everyone in the region was a fan. Counterpunch examines how the sport's meteoric rise in popularity in the West ran concurrently with a growing backlash among Progressive Era social reformers who saw boxing as barbaric. These tensions created a morality war that pitted state officials against city leaders, boxing promoters against social reformers, and fans against religious groups. Historian Meg Frisbee focuses on several legendary heavyweight prizefights of the period and the protests they inspired to explain why western geography, economy, and culture ultimately helped the sport's supporters defeat its detractors. A fascinating look at early American boxing, Counterpunch showcases fighters such as "Gentleman" Jim Corbett, Bob Fitzsimmons, and Jack Johnson, the first African American heavyweight champ, and it provides an entertaining way to understand both the growth of the American West and the history of this popular-and controversial-sport.

This eighth book of the author on gambling math presents in accessible terms the cold mathematics behind the sparkling slot machines, either physical or virtual. It contains all the mathematical facts grounding the configuration, functionality, outcome, and profits of the slot games. Therefore, it is not a so-called how-to-win book, but a complete, rigorous mathematical guide for the slot player and also for game producers, being unique in this respect. As it is primarily addressed to the slot player, its goal is to present practical applications of the mathematical models of slot games, in order to provide numerical results that a player can use as criteria for gaming decisions or just as information for any slot game and any predicted winning event. These results are focused on probability and expected value, these being the most important parameters for decisional criteria in slots. The book is packed with plenty of figures, tables, and formulas. The content is organized so that readers can skip the theoretical parts and go picking the practical results (numerical, in tables of values where possible, or ready-to-compute formulas) for the desired situation. The practical results are gathered in the last chapter, titled "Practical Applications and Numerical Results," the largest part of the book, for the most popular categories of slot machines, namely with 3, 5, 9, and 16 reels. Any other category of slot games is covered in the theoretical part of the book, where the general formulas apply not only to existing slot games, but also to possible future slot games of any design and configuration. The author does not just throw the slot mathematics to the audience and run away, but offers an ultimate practical contribution with the chapter "How to estimate the number of stops and the symbol distribution on a reel," a surprise for both players and producers, where one can see that mathematics provides players with some statistical methods as well as methods based on physical measurements for retrieving these missing data. Having these data along with the mathematical results of this book, anyone can generate the PAR sheet of any slot machine. In the last decade, mathematics has been taken more and more seriously into account in gaming, as being the essence that governs the games of chance and the only rigorous tool providing information on optimal play, where possible. For the popular game of slots, mathematics already fulfilled its duty by providing all the data that it can provide and that cannot be found on the display of the slot machines - it is all here in this book.

Ask Dr. BlackJack By Sam Barrington What do the Readers Think of "Ask Dr Blackjack"? "I struggled to stay even playing Blackjack and thought I could be a better player. After reading "Ask Dr Blackjack" my game really picked up when I instituted the extra plays in the book." Phillip Cuffman - Attorney "I have travelled all over the world gambling with my husband. We have both played professionally and done well, thought we knew all there was to know about Blackjack. After reading "Ask Dr Blackjack" we discovered plays that only enhanced our winning experiences. This book is well worth the price." Margaret Hinson - Midtown Billiards, Since 1940 (Owner) "Blackjack is a hobby of mine. I enjoy the game but had trouble grasping some of the methods involved.

Dustin Monday - Computer Systems Engineer "As a recreational Blackjack player, Barrington's insight on the correct plays has made a great difference in how far my gambling dollars go when I visit a Casino.

Hello, I'm David Greene, and this is my second offering as a writer of Sports Betting books. I've been making quite the nice living wagering on College and Pro sports (not just Football), for almost fifteen years now. I've been recently persuaded to go public with all of my self-taught theories and practices. I've come to believe that if I am any kind of a teacher; that anyone with the proper amount of motivation; can absolutely be taught how to become a Pro. Throughout this booklet of mine you will (at the very least) learn a heightened degree of discipline. This alone, will completely revitalize your career as a gambler. This booklet (recently revised I might add, as of 11/01/08); was designed to help all levels of Sports Gamblers. But, I must admit it primarily delves into football betting, mostly. So, if you're a novice or at the avid level; I assure you that this booklet will help you immensely

This heritage edition is a precise reprint of the much-lauded 1891 English translation of this seminal text. Written by French master magician Robert Houdin, and translated by Joseph Foster, this book is truly a two-edged sword. A thorough treatise on protection from cheating card sharpers, the book delves into the very mechanics of the cheats themselves, thus making it as useful for the budding card-sharper as it is for the honest gamber seeking to protect from cheating. Within its 288 pages, the reader will learn various scams, shams and confidence tricks and in doing so can protect himself from that villainous scoundrel, the gambler who never seems to lose.

If you want to become a full-time professional gambler it takes a lot of time, knowledge, and practice to ensure that you have an advantage over the casino. However, if you are just a recreational gambler looking for the best ways to win money in a casino, this is the book for you. I've made the methods as simplistic as possible. The goal of this book is to show gamblers how to play at "even odds" without having to make many changes. A gambler can't ask for more than that without spending a great deal of time studying and practicing the games. It does help if you have a basic understanding of blackjack and the different poker hands before you read this book. This book goes beyond the simple bets that one needs to make in order to have a realistic chance of going home a winner. There are many other aspects to gambling that can't be ignored if you want to be successful. Such as: Money Management Bankroll Self-Discipline Gambling Sessions Gambling Without the Guilt Emotional Control These are all components of becoming a gambler that has a realistic chance of winning when you gamble. There are some people that just want to go to the casino to have a good time and they don't care if they lose money. In fact, most of them expect to lose. That is certainly acceptable if that is what you choose to do, but hopefully this book will show you that with a few simple changes you can increase your chance of success greatly. I'm not going to make silly promises of you winning thousands of dollars, but why should you let the casino have a 10-15% advantage over you when there are ways to reduce that to close to 0%?

In this book you will find three true accounts of individual's that are, or have suffered from gambling addiction in their family and or life along with important information about this addiction. Jake Ploeth has taken their stories and put it into words for others to read. Problem gambling is a unique type of addiction. Those who are addicted to alcohol or drugs have become dependent upon the substance itself. Sure, there are emotional and behavioral issues as well, but their bodies have become physically dependent upon whatever substance they have become addicted to. Gambling, on the other hand, is more of a behavioral addiction. It is not uncommon for those suffering with a gambling addiction to go through a change spiral when recovering. Every person's journey is different. For some, they are able to overcome their problem gambling on their first try. It takes others a few tries. However many attempts it takes, each time you get back up and try again, you gain new tools and understandings.

Not only could you beat the odds and win more with the lottery than you thought possible, but winning doesn't have to be hard or complicated. In fact, it all comes down to some simple math that anyone can do, and I've done all the hard work for you anyway. There is no guarantee of winning, but you can increase your chances and beat the odds, and sooner than later they will turn in your favor. It happens all the time, especially when people follow a good system. Don't let anyone tell you can't or won't win the lottery. They are dead wrong But don't take my word for it... "Thanks for writing this book, I am winning more now with the lottery than in any time before and it's all thanks to your system." Erin Hasse (Carlton, KS) "I love that Noah's strategy is so simple to follow. But he also backs it up with facts and reasons why it helps bring the odds more in your favor." Linda Harris (Rochelle Park, NJ)
