Kirkus Review says: "Bergmann divulges ruthless strategies and sneaky advice for winning the classic board game. A sharp-eyed guide to dominating the playing board." This book will teach you how to: (1.) Take control of the board by preventing opponents from obtaining monopolies while acquiring your own. (2.) Double the amount of cash at your disposal. (3.) Become sneakier and harder to play against while identifying weaknesses in your opponents. (4.) Invest in properties that can do the greatest damage to your opponents with the least cost to you. (5.) Trade to leave opponents deep in debt with monopolies they can't afford while securing your own position. These are the most important things it teaches. Altogether, there are 18 strategies. They were all created to hunt down and eliminate luck from your game as much as possible, and to allow you to win as close to 100% of the time as the dice will allow. In other words, they work no matter which properties you buy, with some variation of course. Most Monopoly strategy books rely on probability, but using probability is essentially relying on luck, and luck is not a strategy. (To read more about why using probability is just relying on luck, see description on back of book.) The strategies in this book do not rely at all on probability. They are completely different. This book was written to be reasonably short, easy to understand, and fun to read. If you purchase a copy, please post a review. Thanks.

Paul Rodney Turner (a.k.a. "BATman") invented the Billiard Aim Trainer (BAT).He has studied the teachings of great masters of pool and snooker, as well as being personally trained by World Champions, Allison Fisher (right) and Gerda Hofstatter (left), top touring pro Max Eberle, and Master BCA instructor, Jerry Briesath. Paul started playing pool in 1973 at the age of 10 on a seven-foot particleboard pool table in his family's garage. Fascinated by the art and geometry of billiards, Paul studied the books of legendary snooker and billiard greats and had hopes of one day becoming a professional snooker player, but then in 1983, as if being called for a higher purpose, Paul put away his snooker cue and traveled East to study the ancient mystical teachings of India. It is that experience that Paul now draws on when explaining the more subtle aspects of billiards, like mind management and gamesmanship. Join Paul on a journey of championship billiards and self- discovery as he reveals the essential ingredients of what makes a great pool player and a great human being.

Grandmaster Damian Lemos presents a repertoire for White against both the King's Indian and Grunfeld defences. Many players struggle to find suitable lines to challenge these two popular and dynamic openings, or find the masses of theory in the main lines difficult to digest. Lemos solves this perennial problem by advocating a solid system of development based on the fianchetto system, where understanding ideas is more important than move memorization. By playing a very early g3 and Bg2, White protects his kingside, denies Black much of the counterplay typically associated with the King's Indian and Grunfeld, and creates long-term pressure on the queenside. Lemos's choices in this book are largely based on his own repertoire he used on the way to becoming a Grandmaster. Using illustrative games, Lemos examines the typical tactics and strategies for both sides and highlights key move order issues. This book tells you everything you need to know about playing the Fianchetto System against the King's Indian and Grunfeld. *A repertoire for White after 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 g6 *Includes the King's Indian, Grunfeld and Symmetrical English. *Examines the key tactical and positional ideas
