If you're looking for "get-rich-quick" systems on sports betting, then look elsewhere (and you'll be looking for a *long* time, too!). But, for the average income gambler like myself, you'll make good use of the author's betting theories, money management and discipline guidelines. Filled with dozens of examples, John Patrick's book on one of the most popular forms of gambling explains how to manage your money and turn a profit simultaneously at this exciting game of chance. Read it, digest it and follow it. You'll be glad you did.

This is the first of John Patrick's books I have read. From other comments, you either love or hate his writing style. I think he is hilarious while also very informative. All I have to say about this book is, betting with the money management ideas he presents, I ended up positive where I have so many times previously ended up negative on the same number of wins. If you bet on sports, buy this book!

John Patrick's Sports Betting book is by far one of the best books of it's kind. John explains the ins and outs of the sports wagering world, educating the reader and at the same time making you laugh at yourself. The best thing about John's book is that it gives you practical and realistic expectations about sports wagering instead of greed based hype. If you're serious about cutting gambling losses and incresing profits, get this book!
