Thrifty Gambling

4 September 2000

A Scoblete Get-the-Edge Guide
Thrifty Gambling by John Brokopp
Introduction by Frank Scoblete

LOSE YOUR COOL AND YOU'LL LOSE YOUR CASH!

The casinos exist to take the player's money and make him or her feel good about it. If you don't feel good about it, that's okay with the casinos, too, as long as they can get your money. Your mood is not as important as their bottom line. Unfortunately, many casino gamblers forget the value of a dollar -- or a thousand dollars -- when they enter the exciting world of casino play. They throw caution and currency to the winds, entering the casino with cash in their pockets and leaving with air.

But it doesn't have to be that way! This book will show you how to avoid the common psychological and strategic pitfalls that most recreational gamblers fall prey to. It will give you a foundation for beating the casinos at their own games or, at the very least, give you the means for not beating yourself.
