5.0 out of 5 stars Great for blackjack, December 1, 2002
By Albert Michael (Fairfax, VA United States) - See all my reviews
The drills in this book are the easiest way to learn basic strategy and counting. I never could learn from those funky matrices in other books, but picked it right up from these. A great first book for gambling.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Beginners, May 26, 2000
By "clay68" (Dallas, Tx) - See all my reviews
I bought this book several years ago when I took my very first trip to Las Vegas. Since then it has gone with me every time. Mr. Ortiz covers everything: from etiquette at the tables to calculating the odds for all games to managing you bankroll. This book has it all, and it is very easy to read and understand. I can't recommend it enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good starting book for a fledgling gambler, February 19, 2000
By Henry R. (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
Mr. Ortiz's book is a good introductory book that deals with the basics of gambling, while also including some elements of advanced gambling technique. The book covers the basics of every major casino game as well as slots and video poker. One of the great strengths of the book is that it teaches how to figure out the odds and payoff for casino games and tells you which ones you're more likely to win at. It also goes into detail about the basics of things like card counting, gambling systems, and even casino credit, junkets, and comps. It is the easiest and most pleasant book I've read for the beginning gambler and I would recommend it to anybody wanting to better their gambling skills.
