More than twenty years after the publication of Beat the Dealer, the best-selling book on winning at blackjack, Dr. Edward O. Thorp again focused his attention on gambling games with an analysis of: * BACCARAT -- Can card counting eliminate the house advantage? * BACKGAMMON -- Playing optimally in endgame situations. * BLACKJACK -- Understanding blackjack systems and detecting cheating. * GAMBLING GAMES -- Which ones you cannot beat and why. * MONEY MANAGEMENT -- How to maximize your return and what strategies to avoid. * ROULETTE and the WHEEL OF FORTUNE -- Using the laws of physics to predict the next winning number. In easy-to-understand language, learn what a leading mathematician discovered in thirty years of computer-assisted research. This is the long-awaited publication of Dr. Thorp's accumulated work on gambling. Before you risk your money, find out what the "Albert Einstein of Gambling" has to say!
