The Everything Casino Gambling Book: From Poker, to Roulette, to Slots-The Rules, Strategies, and Secrets You Need to Beat the Odds (The Everything Series)

Rating:
Summary: a most dissatisfying read
Review: if you can spell "casino" you are much too advanced to waste time reading this. the author is apparently targeting the most uninitiated of casino visitors; however, it is difficult to imagine, with the proliferation of legalized gaming in this country, that any reader could be this wanting. all information in this book is readily accessible in any legalized gambling establishment free of charge and this author must certainly be aware of this fact. spend the $10 on a buffet when you get to Vegas!

Summary: Excellent Introductory Book
Review: The book is definitely for beginners and thats what I am. I have read other introductory books which, while good, left out important details about how actual play progreses This book gores through gameplay, step by step. The book explained things about poker, for example, which I was confused about. It quickly summerized how to make the best of your poker hand. Recommended.

Summary: An avid gambler
Review: The previous reviewer is correct when he says this a basic book for the first-time gambler. However, this is what the "Everything" series tries to do. These books will not make you an expert in any particular field. If you know someone who gambles occasionally, for them, this book is perfect. It covers many games and while not getting too in depth, tries to bring up the areas of each game in which to be concerned. Show me any other beginner's gambling book that covers every game any better than this one.
