Summary: I Would Be Ashamed To Be Seen With This Woman
Review: This book is a huge disappointment and an even bigger waste of money. The book is an attempt to update a 1998 book on the same subject. Scott appears to be saying that you are going to lose money at a casino so you need to get enough "comps" to make up for your losses. Scott devotes much of the book to video poker and how a player can break even while playing accepted strategy. The way to learn this strategy is to spend money on more of her "Frugal" products. On just about every other page she urges you to purchase other Huntingdon Press products, including her video poker computer simulation program.
The last part of the book is even more disappointing. Scott states there are three ways to get comps, earn them on your Players Card, get mailings, or ask a slot host. Is this a revelation or something that is common knowledge to even the most naive player? You can sum up the entire book in one sentence. Play video poker, clip coupons, look for free promotions, ask a slot host for freebies and spend money on Jean Scott endorsed products. Scott believes this formula will lose you the least amount of money if you gamble in casinos.
