"Killer Roulette" is a very enjoyable, interesting, and well written book, with many fascinating stories which will no doubt become a important part of Roulette lore. This book answers many commonly asked questions about the game of Roulette, although it is not necessarily a method book, but rather, an insider's look into the people involved with Roulette, and the intrinsic nature of the game itself. I found it to be a very worthwhile addition to my gambling library.

Important material here for the serious roulette player...Dealer control of where the ball lands is an idea that is kept secret by Vegas. Giving it publicity would badly hurt the game and the amount gambled. The best system I know is to figure out what numbers the dealer is trying to hit and then bet them after he has released the ball. Set the dealer up by betting small amounts away from where he is intent upon hitting. And if he shows he is still trying for HIS OWN numbers, swoop in with all your chips after he has released the ball and bet the new numbers. The looks you will get from the dealer and the pit boss, you will remember for years. Of course, this is a guerilla strategy. Do it, make your money and leave. I came by this approach after long conversations with a 20 year veteran croupier who could hit sections just as the author suggests he could. ANother tip is to tip the dealers and try to get them on your side. I wrote a book about this a few years ago. I still sell it. William TigerSoftCom Watch the speed of the wheel. If the dealer speeds up the wheel, he is not trying to hit a same numbers he has been hitting. If he lets the speed of the wheel continue as is, you have a good clue he is trying to repeat his numbers or control the new mumbers by making small adjustments.

This book is fiction. The characters and most of the stories should be treated as such. The stories are terrific, and that is about all you can get from the book.

The author claims to be an expert in the field and claims to have trained and advised players, "who went on to earn six-figure sums", but that is questionable. This book fails to deliver what it promises. The author makes claims that he knows certain things about visual wheel tracking but only scratches the surface on the topic. The book falls short on the strategy and mechanics of roulette. The author even mentions that you can contact him for further detail about visual wheel tracking but he fails to delivery on that as well. If you do not believe me, contact him and ask him to train you on visual tracking and how to beat roulette and see what happens.

This book should not be entitled Killer Roulette, instead, it should be called Fantasy Roulette.

Product description is misleading. It infers the book will tell how the game can be beaten. Its tales of daring and imaginative roulette players fail to deliver. Borrowing from Killer Roulette's back-cover teaser and paraphrasing, the book "has numerous weaknesses." In the introduction, the author states the reader "will learn how biased wheels are formed and how to detect them as well as how professionals cheat on roulette." (p. 13) No, it does not live up to its claim. It is, however, a rambling he-said, I-replied- let's fill up the pages with some words like calculated, biased wheel, cheating move, prediction, low profile wheel, computer program, and other terms that don't deliver. The author talks about how one could hide in the toilet above the ceiling panel waiting until the casino closes so to rig the wheel, or smearing some chemical on the black numbers of the wheel to create a bias, and other equally absurd acts that would be sure to earn the perpetrator jail time.

There are better books that actually do relate the history of roulette, how to play, systems some players have used, and how to spot a biased wheel or a dealer's signature.

Search inside the book, and have a few-pages-random read. Click surprise me a few times, and you will see how shallow the writing is.
