5.0 out of 5 stars I want Wayne's World!
I'm in awe. I'm amazed about just how much one person knows about life...risk...and winning. Thru Zen,Family or Spirituality I learned an entirely new perspective about life. Then he switches gears and tells me about risk....and how to have less risk thru Contrarian thinking and Value Investing. Now I'm ready to go the opposite way after I hear someone say "it can't...

1.0 out of 5 stars Review Scam?
Check out the other reviews on this book, and then check out all the reviews by that person. See the pattern? All of the reviewers have either only reviewed this one book or 2 books by Mr. Root. How credible are these reviews?

5.0 out of 5 stars I want Wayne's World!, August 30, 2006
This review is from: The King of Vegas' Guide to Gambling: How to Win Big at POKER, Casino Gambling & Life!The Zen of Gambling updated (Paperback)
I'm in awe. I'm amazed about just how much one person knows about life...risk...and winning. Thru Zen,Family or Spirituality I learned an entirely new perspective about life. Then he switches gears and tells me about risk....and how to have less risk thru Contrarian thinking and Value Investing. Now I'm ready to go the opposite way after I hear someone say "it can't miss"!
And finally, there's betting rules and a betting clock to maximize my betting opportunities. I didn't know that!! But what I enjoyed the most is how he took me thru the World Series of Poker. I not only feel like I was there but I learned so much I'm have many successes on the internet.His writing style is second to none during this fast paced chapter. What an incredible piece of work. This is a smart read for all risk takers, sports gamblers and poker players. And a must read for everybody else even if you only want to see how one man can combine success with family and business. Thanks Wayne Root!

This review is from: The King of Vegas' Guide to Gambling: How to Win Big at POKER, Casino Gambling & Life!The Zen of Gambling updated (Paperback)
I have drastically improved both my gambling profits and my success in my "real career" since being exposed to Wayne's books and philosophies. Life is all about gambling...no matter what your goals are...you must take calculated risks and be confident in yourself. Millionaire Republican is a must read...it is not a political book....people of all ideologies will be challenged and inspired. If you are a casino gambler, sports gambler or just a love to roll the dice in life...check out Wayne's fun and easy to read style

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank you for this book!, August 29, 2006

This review is from: The King of Vegas' Guide to Gambling: How to Win Big at POKER, Casino Gambling & Life!The Zen of Gambling updated (Paperback)
I just finished Wayne Allyn Root's book on the Zen of Gambling after receiving it as a gift from a friend of mine to whom I had recommended the Millionaire Republican by the same author. This book was a lot of fun since good books on casino gambling are few and far between and I have to admit I like to partake on my trips to Vegas. This book is more than just a nuts and bolts "how to play". Wayne is a very colorful individual (if any of you have read the Millionaire Republican or heard Wayne on the radio can attest) who gives some interesting insights on what it takes to be a winner. I won't give away the material, but its more than just knowing when to stay and when to hit in blackjack or what numbers to avoid in craps. With this book, its more about the mindset or "Zen". If you've ever had a tuff streak at the poker or blackjack table, or playing those "office pools" (haha) on Football Sunday, then this book can teach you to ride out the tuff times and maximize the runs. Finally someone has written this book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loaded with usefull information, August 31, 2006
This review is from: The King of Vegas' Guide to Gambling: How to Win Big at POKER, Casino Gambling & Life!The Zen of Gambling updated (Paperback)
I've been a client of mr. Root for many years. When I heard about his new book I couldn't wait to read it! He did not let me down. The king of vegas guide to gambling is a book full of unique gambling wisdom.

Wayne's honest, heartfelt story of his long journey from a butcher's son in a blue collar town...to king of vegas is a true testament to hard work, committment, tenacity and the end result- the american dream. You never find that kind of inspirational and motivational business wisdom in a
gambling book. I give this book 5 stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Poker & Gambling, August 29, 2006

This review is from: The King of Vegas' Guide to Gambling: How to Win Big at POKER, Casino Gambling & Life!The Zen of Gambling updated (Paperback)
I was a big fan of Wayne Allyn Root's TV show "The King of Vegas" on Spike TV. I thought he was a dynamic TV personality. But beauty and brains rarely go together. I bought Wayne's book a few days ago just to see what makes the guy tick- and was I ever blown away. He's NOT an empty suit. This guy is sharp. His chapter on casino gambling is intuitive. His chapter on poker is nothing short of brilliant. Wayne is one bright guy. He knows gambling like no one I've ever read. But he is also a fantastic writer. His book is a fast and easy read- I couldn't put it down until I finished. I already tried out his Poker advice at an online poker casino- and I won $300 in two hours. Not a bad return on a $10 book! I have newfound respect for WAR- as the world now calls Wayne Allyn Root. He gave me insights on gambling, poker and life (risk in the business world) that I've never read anywhere else before. Quite a read. Thanks WAR!
