Are you a casual gambler? Read this book. In fact, for you, you can just read the final 28 pages. In fact in fact, if you only play one game, you can probably just read the 1-4 pages devoted to your game (although I would also recommend the pages at the beginning and the end of the Gospel of St. Anthony. Yes, I'm advocating paying $28 for possibly just one page of content. Why? Because that one page is virtually guaranteed to save you more than $28, even for a $5 player. The strategies presented are both easy to remember, and palatable for most players' tastes. It's a unique idea that I haven't seen in print anywhere else.Are you a table games dealer? Yes, there are times where James is not...complimentary towards you. But reading this book will allow you to not only "well, actually..." your players, but you will also be able to lord your newfound knowledge over your coworkers, and, most importantly, your idiot bosses. Think of all the extra tokes your new badass knowledge can generate!Speaking of idiot casino bosses, you guys should absolutely, positively, definitely read this book. Yes, James holds many of you in derision, but it's for good reason (James isn't alone in the sharp community who thinks that way. Some of the things you guys do...my god). Fix the stupid in your casino, create revenue for your bosses/shareholders while also giving players a more enjoyable experience. Hell, buy a dozen copies on the corporate card and scatter them around your executives' offices.Sharp recreational gamblers/promo/comp hustlers/Sasquatches: Not only will this book help you on your various entertainment/nittery/free drinking journeys, but you will likely get a lot of James' humor, which is worth the price of admission alone. Also, if you're aware of the notable people in the AP/research world, the expertly thrown shade is a marvel to behold. Worth $28 right there. Oh yeah, and odds are the advice contained herein will make you orders of magnitude more money than the purchase price.Personally, I bought this book fearing it'd be a rehashing of publicly available information on how to play these games. However, I was hoping for some tidbits here and there giving me and insight into how the author's mind works. I got far more than I was hoping for. Also - and I knew this from his blog - he's an excellent writer. He's very pleasurable to read, with little Easter eggs all over (undoubtedly inclusive of some I missed). Even if you're a blackjack, VP, or slots pro, this insight into a true expert's thinking makes this expenditure advantageous.
