Great stories

Really great stories of casino and gambling cons. Amazing stories from a guy with a very interesting life.

Fun story! Listened twice already!

Daniel did a great job portraying a great story! I really enjoyed Ch 19 discussing spotting a cheater.

Gaming

When you are cheating it is more dun to cheat the cheater. Money wasn't everything.

Worst Audio Book By Far!

This book is insultingly bad. The narration is even worse. It’s as if a group of 8 year olds got together and produced this. Finally the story is nothing more than a cheater from the 1930’s cheating and robbing other cheaters. Audible owes me a credit.
