Book Title: Probability Guide to Gambling: Learn The Mathematics of Slots, Blackjack, Poker, Dice, Roulette, Baccarat, Lottery and Sport Bets.
This gambling book provides a precise account of the odds associated with all gaming events.
by Catalin Barboianu.
Paperback: 316 pages.

Review: This book is from Barboianu's serial of gambling math. Gamblers may easily skip the math sections and go directly to the odds table they need, due to a professional organization of the content. There are sections where certain formulas have never been worked out before, like Draw Poker odds for opponents, where you will find odds for one or at least one of your opponents to make a higher formation than yours, function of your own seen cards and the number of opponents. The Blackjack section contains a general formula for calculating the odds of being hit a favourable card, function of played cards and the number of decks used. And all have professional tables with numerical returns. Great job.

Synopsis: Over the past few decades, gamblers have begun taking mathematics into account more seriously than ever before. While probability theory is the only rigorous theory that can model the hazards of gambling, even in idealized conditions, numerical probabilities are viewed not only as purely theoretical information, but also as a decision-making criterion, especially in gambling.

This book presents the mathematics underlying games of chance and provides a precise account of the odds associated with all gaming events. It begins by explaining in simple terms the meaning of the concept of probability for the layman and goes on to become an enlightening journey through the mathematics of chance, randomness and risk.

Readers who do not have a minimal background in mathematics should skip directly to the "Guide to Numerical Results" to pick the odds and recommendations they need for the desired gaming situation. Doing so is possible due to the organization of that chapter, in which the results are listed at the end of each section, mostly in the form of tables.

The chapter titled "The Mathematics of Games of Chance" presents these games not only as a good application field for probability theory, but also in terms of human actions where probability-based strategies can be tried to achieve favourable results.

The book provides great coverage of probabilities for the following games of chance: Dice, Slots, Roulette, Baccarat, Blackjack, Five Card Draw Poker, Texas Hold'em Poker, Lottery and Sport Bets. No formal background in mathematics is necessary to read these sections, although familiarity with some probability and set theory notions is helpful.

Most casino games are predisposed to probability-based decisions. This is why the approach is not an exclusively statistical one (like many other titles published on this subject), but analytical: every gaming event is taken as an individual applied probability problem to solve.
