5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book!, January 7, 2000

By	karrie (USA) - See all my reviews

If you think you know everything that there is to know about Caribbean Stud or Let it Ride, then guess again. It always seemed like such an easy game, but I continued to lose anyway. Now I not only know what I was doing wrong, but I know what hands I have to play, when to fold, and exactly when to let my bets ride. I highly, highly recommend this book to anyone, even if you think you know how to play! He examines the rules, proper strategies, odds and probabilities, betting techniques, and everthing else you need to know.

If you are serious about finally winning at these games, BUY THIS BOOK!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, February 11, 2000

By A Customer

Beyond a doubt, this is the best book available on these two games. It is tightly written, packed with info on everthing from odds and vigorish to playing strategy and winning methods. I've read a few other books on these games before, and I've been playing them for a few years now, but this book has more info than any I've read, and the strategies are the best I've seen. I've already won more money than I ever have before! Thank you Mr. Vogel!

1.0 out of 5 stars caribbean stud & let it ride, February 17, 2001

By	"dadalius" (clarence, ny United States) - See all my reviews

gives and overview of the rules of the games in excrutiating detail. Nothing to do with strategy. The book is a waste of time for anyone who knows the basics of poker. Only one small reference to actual gaming odds of various poker hands. SUMMARY: If you have a pair of tens or better in Let it Ride you should stay. If you get a pair or ace-king in certian situations in Caribbean Stud you should stay.
