    cathlyn: Beyond Counting book

    BEYOND COUNTING for sale cheap!!!

    This is my first post; I have never posted on forums in the past. I hope this does not scream SPAM, because I really thought you guys would want to know that I'm putting James Grosjean's Beyond Counting up for auction on Ebay with a very low starting bid so everyone gets a fair shot at it. I've gently copied any pages I need for reference, but the book is in like new condition. I've never sold anything on Ebay before, so although I plan to list it on Friday, 12-10-05 at 7 p.m. PST, it could turn out more complex than I think, in which case it will start on Sunday at the same time.

    I haven't played since Peter Giles (my husband) died in 1998. (If you don't remember Peter, look in the preface and index of Wong's Blackjack Secrets.) I hope people remember him as I do, a brilliant but humble man of great integrity and charm. I'm totally out of touch, so I could use some advice. The closest casinos to me are in Shreveport - are there any good games there? God only knows how much I have missed.

    Thanks, Mindliver.

    Myooligan: Looked at the back cover. . .

    What does Grosjean have to say about beating craps? Based on the going price, I doubt I'll be in the running, but I'm tres curious.

    Oh yeah and what's the story on a 2nd printing?

    Trapper: Second edition


    Haven't seen the book but Grosjean has a web site for the second edition. There are no publication dates. Maybe someone at RGE knows. Copies of the book have sold for ten times its current ebay price.

    Bettie: Last I heard

    was that the book would be ready by now, but I'm not surprised that it isn't out yet. I haven't talked to James in over a month, but his schedule is just too busy to really put a firm date on the release, despite his best intentions. I go to the website every couple of weeks for news, just like everyone else, and I point everyone who calls me for info there, too.
