Title: Vapid Fluff
Product review: I am not a gambler, but I do enjoy the mathematics of gaming. After reading "The Eudamonic Pie" (a non-fiction look at Stanford computer scientists using computers to beat Roulette) I figured this book might provide some insight into playing strategy.Unfortunately, it was a disappointment. There are a few useful tips, but they are wedged between dozens of pages of worthless information. Need to know that chips are made of "high-impact plastic" or that you need to show up at the casino with a bankroll? This is your book. If you want to actually develop strategies to beat Vegas, save the $15 and check out any number of good Web sites that dispense gambling advice.
