Sports Betting for Winners

Tips and Tales from the New World of Sports Betting

By: Rob Miech

Narrated by: Barry Abrams

Every sporting event is an opportunity to win money. The legalization of sports wagering has increased the pot exponentially. But navigating the new systems can be tricky. If you're a newcomer ready to bet on sports as an occasional pastime, veteran sports writer and Las Vegas insider Rob Miech delivers a vital primer on terminology, options, and procedures. If you're already taking advantage of the sports betting world as a money-spinning career, he shares the latest approaches and all-new game-changing techniques by tapping the skills, secrets of success, and cautionary counsel of players on both sides of the counter.

For Joes and Pros alike, Miech explains the benefits of conveying your wagers succinctly and efficiently, the value of betting numbers not teams, and the canny art of middling and of side-stepping the vig. He also offers invaluable advice on managing a bankroll, dispensing with impulse, being aware of every option, and exhibiting discipline for minimizing loss, maximizing the winnings, and fattening your wallet.

With behind-the-scenes stories and no-holds-barred interviews with the legendary masters of betting, Sports Betting for Winners shows how, with the right information and a sprinkling of luck, you can capitalize on the numbers behind the numbers and take the bettor's game to the next level.

it was ok not great

this book was okay not great! I enjoy the story and some insight. it does not give any betting advice.

The History of Sports betting

Couldn't stop listening. A history course of sports betting. Highly recommended. Great personalities throughout

ok book more old stories than betting advice

it's ok, more stories than advice, other than that it's a ok book, there are better ones out there

well done and highly informative, and lots of fun

nice book, I like the skinny at the end of every chapter or story, and it's all very entertaining top to bottom. Could use an update of course since it's 5 years old and a lot has happened in the industry, but still fun!
