5.0 out of 5 stars fun easy to understand rules 4 May 2012

The rules in this book are easy to understand, and I love that it was available for instant download. We were travelling and playing cards in our hotel rooms at night, and it was great to be able to refer to this to solve small family feuds while playing.
2.0 out of 5 stars Blackjack Rules Incomplete 31 Dec 2012
By Kevin C. Carpenter - Published on Amazon.com

Blackjack - dealer must take hit card at least until reaching 17. The book doesn't mention this.

It's important because if a player stands on 13 and the dealer flip the hole card showing a 15 it woud seem that the dealer won. But even though the dealer has the better hand they MUST continue to take hit-cards until they at least reach 17. In the process the dealer may bust . . . . in which case the player would win.

Also, I was a little surprised the book didn't included rules for Texas Hold 'Em Poker as it is very popular.
3.0 out of 5 stars Good variety but most are in depth to learn 14 Nov 2012
By EAF - Published on Amazon.com

I like the variety of games this book offers but it was frustrating that many of the games had in depth rules and were a little difficult to learn or pick up quickly. It's good if you have the time and patience to thoroughly read through before actually sitting down to play but in the heat of the "which game should we play" moment, it's not my favorite.
