Gamble to Win

Any person Seriously Interested in Casino Gambling Must Read and Absorb the Principles in This Book. Probably the MOST SIGNIFICANT BOOK on Casino Gaming Ever Written !!!!!

This book is a pleasure to read. Ellison describes the psychology and mechanics of gambling better than any other author I have read. He is a superior writer. It's been painful for me to read Patrick, Scoblete, Grafstein etc.-really very painful. I enjoy Ellison because he is a refined intelligence reporting clearly and elegantly from what is after all, a sewer of sorts. Gambling is not a good thing. Gambling is related inevitably to moral and emotional degeneracy. Naturally, I enjoy it as often as I can. Ellison writes as a literate gentleman for the great unwashed hordes-wonderful dissection of the underbelly of the beast that is gambling. Mr. Ellison, hang on to that pen.

This book is a must read for anyone who is interested in playing seriously. True, the author does not give you a specific system to use. He gives you much more! He gives you all the tools you'll need to survive the mighty opponent we call the casino. He teaches you how not to lose first, which by my experience and other pro-gamblers I have spoken to, is MORE important that how to win. If you can control yourself, your urges and recognize the casinos weapons against you, you are on your way to winning. Now, that being said....he does give plenty of information,advice and a few strategies on how to win. In one section of the book, he teaches you how to build a large bankroll from $100 sessions in stages and outlines exactly how to do that. I am a much better gambler because of it.

As with most books on gambling, the rules and procedures for the major casino games in the United States are explained. The author through the use of illustrations, provides sufficient detail and clarity for even a beginner to approach any gaming table with an understanding of what he is doing and his best chances of winning.What sets this book apart is the practical advice that it contains. It pulls no punches and emphasizes that the odds are always with the house. Still, if one follows the practical advice, based on personal experience of the author, he will "know when to hold them and know when to fold them".
