I'm always looking for good reading material on gambling or cheating. Has anybody read anything recently that you can recommend and why?

Chappy, thanks for the your recommendations on those great books. The Sharps and Flats book I been trying to get for a while. Just have to bid a little higher next time.

There are no good books on gambling, because when it comes to gambling, the only good thing worth knowing, is what no one else knows.

If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

I just finished Fast Jack the Last Hustler. It was a very good read.

Every year, I reread Larry Seidel's "Investing in College Basketball."
"Torture doesn't work" lol
Guess they forgot to tell Bill Buckley. "...as we reason and love, we are able to hope. And hope enables us to resist those things that would enslave us." |
