Another good book I have been reading is "Casino Gambling: A Winner's Guide To Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, Baccarat, and Casino Poker" by Jerry Patternson. I have only had the chance to read about half the book, but so far it looks ery interesting. It is written, as most are, for the beginning player, but because of the nature of the book it could also benefit experienced players.

The subject of the book is how to become, as JP terms it, and Advantage Player, by taking advantage of aspects of the games that could benefit the player better than traditional strategy. The main thing I found interesting is that he says card counting is useless in most multi-deck shoe games, due to card clumping (which can ary depending on the pick up procedures of the casino). Another example would be what he calls a Controlled Throw in Craps to help the probability of some numbers being more dominant than others. I can not say one way or another how accurate the things discussed in the book are, but alot of what he says really gives you something to think about, and if nothing else puts a new spin on the games and the mathematics behind them.

For an excellent, well-organized selection of the best gambling books (at ery good prices), I highly recommend Conjelco.

Chuck sells every good book on gambling I have read (that's still in print), and none of the awful ones I see clogging bookstore shelves. He has offered good deals and good advice to wired gamblers since the early days of rec.gambling, long before amazon.com became a household name.

Just a happy customer.
