Yeah, I haven't seen anything good by Cardoza, either.

Any views on his blackjack or craps titles?

I've read some of his books mostly because they are in my Dad's gambling library which is now mine and they are short. It has been a long time but from memory:

Craps: recommends hedge betting and the 5 count which is just not betting on the first 5 rolls of a shooter so that he can prove himself. The effect is you lose money slower but if you press your bets you lose the last 5 payoofs on a hot roll that can be payoffs 10 fold higher than your starting bet. Pure ploppy BS.

Basically all his books are crap. He sells negative EV systems to gullible audiences.

Hi,

Thought I'd solicit views from the forum membership around Mr S's titles.

I've just finished reading one on Roulette (perhaps this post should be in the disadvantage section) - "Spin Roulette Gold" - where the main thrust of his advice is comical; ie to bet as if every wheel were biased where numbers come up more frequently than their mathematical probability suggest they should (ie pile the chips on to the "Big numbers" and so forth).

Any views on his blackjack or craps titles? I think he's also written books on slots and baccarat? Are these along similar lines, or is there anything there worth parting company with a few ££s for?

See I wouldn't speak so quickly about Avery Cardoza's books especially "Winning Casino Blackjack For the Non-Counter". I would keep an open mind. Just because there is a review in there by Arnold Snyder. In the first page here is what Arnold's review say:

"His candor...is refreshing in its honesty.. For the causal player who is not inclined to devote the time necessary for mastering a count strategy, this is the best I've seen of this type".

A lot of Arnold's books are published through Cardoza Publishing like "The Big Book of Blackjack" and "Blackbelt in Blackjack". I know for sure Arnold Snyder is not a ploppy because I've been using some of techniques in his books.

seriousplayer,

Your youthful naiveté is showing.

Publishers have authors exchange dust cover praise

in order to exchange the favor as a simple quid pro quo.

Okay, so what you are saying is that Arnold is exchanging favor so he can get Avery Cardoza to do something for him than. Okay, got it I completely understand now.
