Lyle does it again!
Who better to get advice about gambling than the man that casinos go to to learn how to protect themselves? Several time baccarat champion and casino advisor, Lyle Stuart has done it again.

Lyle tells you which games to play and which to avoid like the plague. He gives odds and tips on how to win at the casinos and more importantly walk away a winner.

He also entertains you with true stories of winning and losing millions in hours. If you only read one authority on gambling, Lyle is your man for honest, straight forward advice about casinos, gambling and not losing your shirt.

Great advice for the semi-experienced gambler.
This book is about developing a winning philosophy for gambling. While it does include some strategic tips for playing casino games, the book does not set out to teach you how to play. Instead of focusing on the rules and strategy for individual games, it teaches money managment and how to maximize your chances of leaving the casino with more money in your pocket than you brought in. Lyle Stuart is an acknowledged gambling expert, and he offers up his own experiences in playing and watching casino games. Even though there is a bit too much self-congratulations throughout, his stories are entertaining, and he does a good job of explaining complex odds to the layman. This is a very useful book for anyone who has a basic understanding of casino play.

Entertaining and Accurate
A very good read. Will make you a better casino player if followed! Will also increase your winnings.

"Go Fish" for this book!
The authors have presented an analysis of gin rummy that serves as a critical reference tool, for anyone wishing to improve their game.

Some useful info
Although this book does not recommend any specific system to employ at the tables, it does however give the reader a breakdown of result occurence (banker, player) which could be used when anticipating the best time to place a bet.

The book on Baccarat!
Lyle Stuart does it again, shining light on the world of gambling, true tales of instant wealth and even faster ruin. Stuart is one of the foremost authorities on Baccarat and gambling, winning several world champion Baccarat games and going home with hundreds of thousands of dollars in winnings.

Lyle tells you the odds, how to beat them and how to walk away before they turn against you.

Finally Baccarat from the trenches!
Lyles Stuart tells not only how to win at Baccarat but more importantly how not to lose your shirt. Lyle is a world champion Baccarat player and actually plays exactly how he writes with enthusiasm and passion, balanced by common sense.

This incredible book gives an insider's view of both the game and the world of gambling. His stories will have you laughing and grimacing from one moment to the next as he tells of millions lost and won.

As a gambling authority, Mr. Stuart, is often called on to help casinos protect themselves from cardcheats and cons. He tells you exactly which games to play for the best odds and which to run from with wallet gripped firmly in hand.

All in all this is one of the best baccarat and gambling books I have ever read.
