Zen and the Art of Casino Gaming - by Miron Stabinsky -The book covers the basic rules and strategies for all the popular casino games and also delves into the psychology of the successful player,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Miron Stabinsky has done a great thing with this book. He's illuminated another way of looking at gambling, as a spiritual quest for self-development and self-experience. The book includes many interesting anecdotes gleaned from his long experience in the casino industry and as a professional gambler. Also, there is a considerable emphasis on looking at the whole casino experience and its components in spiritual terms. The book also includes all the basics of the casino table games, slot machines and video poker with strategies and money-management rules. It also has advice on getting along with casino staff, tipping, and how the casino works. I can't recommend this book more higly. Not only is it well-written, but it is truly a pleasure to read, and it's one of my favorite how-to books.
Fantastic

This book was just the sort of book I was after. It wasn't too technical but wasn't lame like others I have read. The only down-side is that it doesn't tell you anyway of counting cards (even just a simple method).This book and another on card counting will suit me just fine. I highly recommend this book as it contains lots of interesting facts about many games.
