        It's alright. A bit outdated. It won't help you too much from a sports betting perspective. It is more helpful for those looking to open up shop. There are far better books out there that will give you a better skillset at successfully handicapping games. In fact, he often claims that it is impossible to beat the books (which is a fallacy). If you only read one book on sports betting, this shouldn't be the one.

          I didn't buy it from a player's point of view.

          Thanks for the input.
