Subtitled: A Comprehensive Guide.  This amazing book is the culmination of almost 30 years of research into casino cheating, advantage play, electronic player assistance, and related gambling activities .

Stanford Wong says, “Saying you like a book so much you can’t put it down may be trite, but in the case of Forte’s new Casino Game Protection, it was true for me. Forte’s depth of knowledge on beating casino games is amazing. Much material in the book has never before been published, to my knowledge.” Also of interest: Gambler’s Protection Series (Videos) and Poker Protection (see below) by Steve Forte.  Hardbound and indexed.   MORE INFO | REVIEW
