The Casino Answer Book
by John Grochowski
Customer Reviews
Informative AND easy to read, September 21, 1998
Reviewer: A reader
This is an amazing book. It's so entertaining and easy to read you don't even realize how much you're learning. The author asks questions I'd never even thought of, then he answers them so clearly and logically that I had no trouble absorbing the information. I've read a lot of blackjack books and was never really clear on the whys behind some of the recommendations. With this book, now I know what all the others were talking about.

Professional Video Poker
by Stanford Wong
Customer Reviews
One of the Standard References *****, December 9, 2004
Reviewer: Richard York
"Professional Video Poker" by Stanford Wong along with "Video Poker-Optimum Play" by Dan Paymar and the venerable "Winning Strategies for Video Poker" by Lenny Frome are the standard references on how to play video poker. If you can, you should buy and read all three of them.
If you can only afford the time and money for one book, you might want consider "How to Gamble at The Casinos Without Getting Plucked Like a Chicken" by James Harrison Ford. In addition to telling you which video poker games to play and how to play them, it covers a variety of other casino games. Another possibility is to get one of the better video poker computer programs.
The interesting thing about video poker games is that you really can make money playing them... IF you know what you are doing and have a big enough bankroll to do it. Any of these standard video poker books can show you how.
Video poker has been called the crack cocaine of online gambling simply because it is almost mesmerizing - fortune seems to be just one click away. The combination of frequent small payoffs, occasional medium size payoffs and the possibility of a big win - a Royal Flush - keeps most players riveted to the machines, feeding them more and more money in the hope of hitting that big one.
Just make sure that you do your homework before you start stuffing money into the video poker machines. It will save you money in the long run and make playing a lot more fun.

The Video Poker Answer Book: How to Attack Variations on a Casino Favorite
by John Grochowski
Customer Reviews
Makes learning video poker painless, December 1, 2000
Reviewer: Sandy Decker (Des Moines, IA)
I've heard and read so often that with the right strategy you can actually come out ahead if you play video poker, but until now, have not been able to get a handle on a strategy. This book helped me tremendously. Not only did I learn to play better video poker, I actually had fun reading the book and learning. The quiz format made it painless. I've read other video poker books, but I always found it a bit grueling working my way through all the charts and calculations. John Grochowski makes it easy. He uses anecdotes to illustrate certain points and they serve as great memory triggers. The book has already helped me improve my play at some of the casinos near my home. I can't wait for my next trip to Vegas. I recommend the video Poker Answer Book to anyone who wants a better understanding of the game and how to play it. Fine learning tool.
