content: I picked this book up in an airport after the book I started on the first leg of my trip home failed to hold my attention. Granted, I was tired so it wasn't necessarily the book's fault and, in fact, now that I went back to the first book later it was actually pretty good. Just not riveting enough to keep me awake and reading.THIS book, however, kept my attention for the entire 2 hours of the second leg of my flight and I found myself speeding home from the airport so I could read more. I finally arrived at home about 11pm and finished the book at 4am. Couldn't put it down. Great writing but and even greater story.I'm not a big gambler or blackjack player but the people involved and the systems they employed to beat the house were just amazing. One of my favorites.Get the book but don't start reading until you have some time on your hands.
