One of the Best,
By
This review is from: Roulette: Playing to Win (Paperback)
Brett Morton has come up with one of the most readable books on roulette in ages. It is concise, balanced,and has an appealing writing style. The reviews and rating of various popular sytems is particularly well done.
The principles of good gambling that he outlines - namely, tremendous self-discipline and great money management skills - are nothing new,but Morton writes with the confidence of someone who has done years of 'hard grafting'. The only thing I question is Morton's obvious conviction that some dealers can influence where the ball lands thus making them candidates for generous tipping.Half his luck ; all the dealers I've observed in the last 20 years seem quite detatched from their spinning technique; so much so that a mis-cued spin is a common sight.Randomness can produce some pretty bizzare number combinations- so the next time you see 20 consecutive 'reds' come up...odds are that this is a random event rather than a present from the dealer just for your benefit! At any rate, this is an entertaining book,full of good advice for novice and expert alike; credit where credit is due.

This review is from: Roulette: Playing to Win (Paperback)
This may be one of very few books on roulette out there that can actually be useful to the player. There isn't anything groundbreaking in it, neither does the author provide any clever new strategies. In terms of content I'd say it deserves 3 stars but one must appreciate the fact that this is a book written by someone who knows the game and is trying to help us all play better rather than scam people into paying for the book and then losing a lot of money while playing, so in the end I decided to give it 4 stars.
If you don't know much about roulette strategies and haven't realized yet that discipline, being sober in the casino and having a money management plan are the three most important things you will find this book very helpful. Also, the author describes the basic playing strategies (that you can read about online as well, by the way) and also talks a bit about their drawbacks - he gives them points on a scale from 1 to 10. I think that's a nice thing because you can see which strategy can potentially ruin you and which one is worth trying out. All in all, I'd say it's a nice guide for beginners. Experienced players will have tried most (if not all) of the ideas. It's good, though, that the rules of the game are explained together with other basics because too many people start playing without familiarizing themselves with what roulette is about - and that's super important as well. It's a good source of information for anyone who doesn't want to bother to look for info on the internet. But if you want to become a pro at roulette and know about its many nuances and dangers you will need to read something extra.
