      tip: pass up the 'system' books , focus on the books about the psychology and emotional aspects of gambling. what separates the winner from the loser is staying even-keeled

                        This book is in a class by itself. A great read.

                          "Gorilla gambling" is one of my favorites. It was written in the 80's. The basic theme was how to counter attack the casino's like they target you. Its points out that the casino's goal is to take your money. It listed tactics to counteract that. I found it in a public library. The book is dated now but good for those who visit casino's frequently.
