Editorial Review: Product Description: For the first time in print, Frank Scoblete, gaming's premier authority, reveals the secrets professionals have used, and jealously guarded, to beat the seemingly unbeatable game. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Absolutely worthless piece of trash!First of you would be hard pressed to find a biased roulette wheel these day's operating in a casino. Moreover it is obvious from reading this book Sclobete is not a roulette player. The systems in this book like the Martingle and the Grand Martingale are nothing new and the casinos make plenty of money from systems like these. I give this book 1 star because I can't seem to find a lower rating put on this book. Rating:  - Responsible for losses worldwideWhat the author doesn't adress is this book is today's reality: - Casino's have become very well organised multinational businesses, they are not longer ruled by the mob as in the beginning days. - Now, suppose you are running a casino, and you would KNOW for certain, if you let your gambling equipment run without maintenance or statistical analysis, some experienced high roller gamblers could step in, and rob your casino for millions of dollars. - These days, I can tell you first source as my friend is a dealer, all roulette wheels in respectable casino's are statistically monitored with software. So at any time the casino has far more statistical data to watch for bias, more data than at any time a player could collect. As any serious statistician will tell you: the larger the statistical data, the more dependable any conclusion one might make. If a player would observe let's say 100 spins to determine bias before playing this is FAR TOO SHORT to seriously determine bias. I would suggest to serious gamblers they buy a decent statistics book in stead of this. - Now suppose the casino security (and they have a lot as any casino visitor knows) notices there is a bias. Well, what would they do, would you think: just let the wheel continue to turn or close it down for maintenance or simply (because they have more than enough money coming in) replace it? This book is written for a time when casino's were ruled by the mob and only thought of making money in the short time. If a reader would be making conclusions to look and play a wrongfully as 'biased' identified wheel, he will loose a lot of money because he is explicitely betting against the law of large numbers (which is the mathematical law that the MIT students used in Blackjack). Or in other words: these days the probability one is playing a balanced are far greater than it would be a biased wheel, in the last case the law of large numbers and probabilitytheory can increase your chances. Nice to have in your roulette library, but of no practical use these days. Rating:  - Spin Roulette Gold - excellent BookFor all you good people out there who are looking for information on how to win at Roulette, this book will give you some good ideas on how to look for bias wheels and play dealers signature. Frank shows you how to play a system called the double dynamite system which works very well specially on older wheels. What I liked most about this book is the fact that it gives you actual recorded spins to test out your systems on. I have used his spins to develop systems. Excellent book. The only thing that I was dissapointed with this book was the fact that he did not explain about how to use visual ballistic techniques. I would advise to buy both this book and Chris Pawlacki book get the edge at roulette as he goes into detain about visual wheel tracking techniques. Rating:  - Best Book on RouletteI've read eight books so far on roulette and this is the best. Scoblete clearly lays out all you need to know about the game, including why systems that have been touted for years just don't work. He demonstrates clearly how to get the edge using certain techniques and how to reduce your exposure to the edge using other techniques. The writing style is very good. Rating: - If It's Random You Can't Win, But If It Isn't You CanThe reviewer from Malaysia didn't understand a fundamental princple of roulette. If the wheel is random there are NO WINNING SYSTEMS. Scoblete explains that in the book and takes a look at all the most popular betting systems that have been developed to beat the game. None work in the long run on random wheels as he shows clearly. However, this book does have winning strategies in it; and it does show how to maximize comps as well. You just have to realize that no reputable author is going to sell pie-in-the-sky winning systems for a random wheel. But Scoblete does the next best thing. He shows you techniques for discovering biases, dealer signatures, big numbers, sector shooters and the like. This is a really well written book and it has thousands of actual-roulette spins recorded so you can play your system without actually risking money. This is a great book.
