Be careful- the implication of the book’s title is that you can win money playing casino games. This is not true. None of the techniques described will cause you to win money. In any casino game, you are mathematically guaranteed to lose money. Even if you temporarily have a short-term win for a day, that will be dwarfed by the law of averages, which guarantees you will lose that money (and then some) over time.

This delightfully well written book should be must reading for anyone who plans a gambling trip. Ms. Mitchell presumes no prior gambling knowledge from her readers and provides a comprehensive overview of the various popular casino games. Her book opens with chapters on intelligent gambling, wager management and casino lingo. There are discussions of winning strategies for the games as well as listings of game specific slang for poker, craps and bingo.
In addition to the traditional casino games there are chapters on sports betting, the ten worst bets, a guide to comps, casino security, Internet gambling and even a section on bingo
In additional to the valuable advice on gambling techniques this book also has chapters solely devoted to listing the various gambling establishments in the United States and Canada as well as selected casinos throughout Europe, Asia, the Caribbean, Africa, Central and South America. The information provided generally includes telephone numbers and website addresses and in certain instances the casino square footage, dress code as well as the specific games available. Prior to reading this book I was completely unaware of the global extent of casino gambling. For example the book notes that there are six casinos located in Nepal which is in the Himalayas.
