About the Author

As a former teacher, I know the value of starting from the beginning, and learning the basics before yout begin.  This is one of a series of how-to books on casino games, all of them designed for the beginner or inexperienced gambler.  They include:

• The ABCs of Craps
• The ABCs of 21
• Be the King! (of small-stakes poker)
• The ABCs of Online Horse Racing

 
I also published a book of fictional short stories about gambling called "Let the Chips Fall" - if you enjoy gambling and/or reading - check it out!
