Small book picked up the Gambler's bookshop in Vegas to give a few tips for the occasional bit of recreational gambling while there.



2 out of 5 stars Extreme 'Basics'   February 9, 2009
William G. Patton (Liverpool, New York USA)
This is an extremely limited overview of my favorite casino game, Video Poker. This book will teach you how to lose a little bit less money, but it is a serious misnomer to call it "Winning Video Poker."

If you followed all of the advice in this book to the letter, your odds of winning would be about the same as rolling on pure luck.

The information is dated and if you want a serious or an informative tome on video poker there are dozens of better ones out there.



1 out of 5 stars This book is too basic to be of much value.   November 15, 1998

This entire book is simply to basic to be of much value--unless you need someone to tell you where the coins go into the machine. The content struck me as an intro (and advertisement) for the more "advanced" books advertised on the last page--namely the playing strategies you probably thought you were getting this round.

There's better information on the web.


1 out of 5 stars An Ad for his other books!   June 15, 1999

I agree with the other eviewr... this i nothing more than an ad for the more "advanced books" the author sells. Save your money. This is garbage.

Very thin. Don't buy this book. There are too many other good video poker books out there to waste a cent on this book. I would suggest something from John Grochowski.
