Raceching - The Future is an Anagram (Paperback): Raceching Raceching - The Future is an Anagram (Paperback)
Raceching
R1,031 Discovery Miles 10 310 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Raceching is one of the most innovative and exciting books ever written. Based on the Confucian classic I Ching, it is written in a unique earthy style that is easy to understand and will appeal to all age groups. The author whose name is the same as the book adds his own ground breaking techniques when it comes to showing people how to make everyday predictions by using the Chinese oracle.
Race has included new information in regard to the lines of the I Ching, by describing a series of actions which he calls single line tenses. These are a set of drawings, showing in graphic detail the actions of each and every line of the sixty-four hexagrams, when they move and change into another (moving line).
Raceching shows a new way to form the hexagrams by a simple process of word and letter counting, this is not only easy to operate, but deadly accurate when making predictions. There is also a chapter dedicated to a technique called psychic anagramming, where readers learn a new way to predict the future by looking for hidden words in a person's name.
However, the most exciting feature about Raceching, is that it centres on horse racing and betting. Race shows his readers how to turn their daily morning newspaper racing page into an exciting new word/anagram game that can pick winners and make profit. I Ching hexagrams are constructed from the name/ time of a horse race by a simple process of word and letter counting. We look for a word or words in the name of the horse - matching it with the Raceching book's blueprint of the winner. There are five logical rules race has invented to make this one of the most exciting word games since the birth of the crossword Raceching, canssomething that is similar to what housewives do on big race days, i.e. looking for personalised word names on a race card that means something to them and their intuition, such as the name of a pet or relative's nickname. It all sounds crazy to the form study boys who have backed the favourite until the thing wins at 33/1- and nobody laughs anymore.
Raceching will appeal to not only followers of I Ching, but also anyone who loves horse racing and gaming in general. It will also appeal to people who love making words, anagrams and letter puzzles. It is a dual purpose I Ching book in one.
Raceching the author is an Englishman with an outstanding knowledge of I Ching. He has based his book around the UK racing scene, but it is easily adapted to fit world markets. This book is the first of its kind, entirely innovative and new in relation to other I Ching publications. When Race says the future is an anagram.... he means it
Raceching.

Continuing his series of books on the mathematics of gambling, the author shows how a simple-rule game such as roulette is suited to a complex mathematical model whose applications generate improved betting systems that take into account a player's personal playing criteria. The book is both practical and theoretical, but is mainly devoted to the application of theory. About two-thirds of the content is lists of categories and sub-categories of improved betting systems, along with all the parameters that might stand as the main objective criteria in a personal strategy - odds, profits and losses. The work contains new and original material not published before. The mathematical chapter describes complex bets, the profit function, the equivalence between bets and all their properties. All theoretical results are accompanied by suggestive concrete examples and can be followed by anyone with a minimal mathematical background because they involve only basic algebraic skills and set theory basics. The reader may also choose to skip the math and go directly to the sections containing applications, where he or she can pick desired numerical results from tables. The book offers no new so-called winning strategies, although it discusses them from a mathematical point of view. It does, however, offer improved betting systems and helps to organize a player's choices in roulette betting, according to mathematical facts and personal strategies. It is a must-have roulette handbook to be studied before placing your bets on the turn of either a European or American roulette wheel.

Is this a great country or what?

You can bet on the turn of the card or a roll of the dice, but also on the NFL, the NCAA, and which Olsen twin marries first. We bet $80 billion a year, the amount growing wildly as more and more people gain access to this huge American wheel of fortune. No longer quarantined in Las Vegas, gambling has become as local and convenient as our neighborhood cineplex. If there's not a casino around the corner, there's one on your laptop computer.

In "Jackpot Nation," Richard Hoffer takes us on a headlong tour, alternately horrifying and hilarious, across our landscape of luck. Whether he's trying to win a side of bacon in a Minnesota bar, hustling a paper sack filled with $100,000 in cash across Las Vegas parking lots, poring over expansion plans with a tribal chief in California, or visiting the New York prison cell of a retired bus salesman with a poor understanding of three-game parlays, Hoffer explores with wit and heart our national inclination--a cultural predisposition, even--to take a chance.
