Luck, Intuition and Foresight, May 29, 2010
Luck, Intuition and Foresight.
The book begins with these attributes as the foundation and uses the latest from the frontiers of quantum physics and combines that with material that the author derives from the ancient Hindu Upanishads that were written in the first millennium BC. What is interesting is the intersection between what is being found in Quantum Physics and what was written thousands of years back in the Upanishads.
The key assertion is that humans have an energy field and this can be controlled and amplified by the human to manufacture luck and significantly improve intuition and foresight. Obviously, if you are able to do this, you will win in gambling. Quantum Physics agrees with the theory that human observation can help define a state for matter and the Author borrows text from the Upanishads that shows that humans can alter matter through the use of their energy fields.
The book provides specific strategies and techniques to build and amplify this energy field in games such as Poker, Blackjack and Slots. The poker chapter makes for interesting reading. Covered, for example, are pre-flop situations, post-flop situations and special case situations. It is an interesting theory that when an energy field is empowered it allows the human subconscious to dip into the "ether" and pick up information not known or understood by the conscious mind. The chapter on Slots has specific techniques to influence the RNG (Random Number Generator) inside the computer chip that powers these modern gambling machines.
This is perhaps the first ever book published that takes spiritual psychic powers inside a casino and uses them in winning money! Irrespective of whether you believe in or dismiss psychic powers it is worthwhile to read the book if only to understand the power and potential of human energy field and its possible applicability in gambling and other situations in life.

Could give you that winning edge!, June 10, 2010
(Note: My firm provided the publisher of this book with pre-press services. Nevertheless, I read it like any buyer/customer would.)
The author opens the book with a discussion of luck, intuition, and foresight - and how each can affect "winning" in games of chance. He explains that certain physical laws and mathematical probabilities apply, yet are supplemented (surrounded) by energy fields that can be controlled - or at least used to one's advantage. That's what the Psychic Gambling Supersystem is, in essence - a set of applied techniques for understanding and channeling energy in a way that gives a good player an extra edge.
This book is not another one of those "can't lose" gambling systems in the traditional sense of that genre. It assumes that the reader already understands how to play casino games, and can play them intelligently. What this book seeks to do is enhance those practical skills with psychic abilities.
To that end, the book thoroughly and effectively presents the steps and exercises one must complete to develop and apply such abilities. The author relates his own personal experiences and psychic beginnings growing up in India, explains the three key components of the Supersystem (methodologies with ancient roots that have been practiced successfully for centuries), and outlines the keys to systematically applying each component to activate one's psychic abilities in a casino gaming setting.
The big question, of course, is "Will the Supersystem work for me?" It is much like a legitimate diet plan or exercise program. It won't work for some, while others will swear by it. (Hey, you ARE a gambler after all, right?) Applying and practicing the techniques takes time and patience, and concepts like the superconscious, synaesthesia, chakras, mantras, and energy fields will likely be too far out of some readers' comfort zones. However, if you have an open mind and do as the book instructs, you will almost surely develop a psychic edge at the table.

If not for that 4th martini!, May 31, 2010
I bought this book on my iPhone! It is so cool! I used the Kindle reader for the iPhone. The pictures and illustrations show up nicely on the iPhone.
I saw a post on this book mentioned in a poker forum. Psychic what??? I have read psychic books in the past about trinkets and amulets and such but that is bogus. I wondered if this was one of those shoddy books that asks you to wear pink underwear and carry a fig leaf in your pocket. Also, I am very leery of self-published books. Low quality stuff, that suspect authors peddle to make a quick buck. I can assure you that this book is very well written. The psychic spiritual stories are beautiful and the language and composition are superb. The book brings together many different things in a neat package. It is the law of attraction working in association with energy centers in the body that are called chakras and the system is activated through the use of mantras. Some suggestions and techniques (supposedly from thousands of years back) seem so outlandish; I thought they just might work! You would literally laugh at these techniques if not for the believable extremely convincing narrative by the author, and various scientific studies he cites to support his theories.
I know that even though poker players claim to be rational many are extremely superstitious. Why, that famous poker player that won the World Series (Johnny Chan?) carried an apple around with him because he thought it brought him luck? I heard that Phil Ivey once stormed out of a casino when he felt that the dealer had bad vibes and was bring him bad luck. I suggest that they read this book and perhaps it is their energy field that is messed up and needs help and not carry a silly apple or cuss at the dealer!
I did try a few techniques from the book at the poker table. I kid you not; my very first hand was pocket Aces! I didn't win a big pot, because as is the case in the early stages of a tourney, most people are reluctant to commit too many chips. I can't tell you whether it is my skill or my energy field or both but I made the final table. I got eliminated in the 8th place and really had a shot at the first place but the fourth martini messed me up.
