The best intro book to internet gambling
I have read a number of books on this topic, and Brokopp's is by far the best. I learned more and I learned it quicker than with anything else. I didn't buy the book looking for "secrets" to win. I wanted to know what internet gambling is all about and this book told me in concise, easy-reading form. Also, I'm a horse racing fan and the section on horse racing and the new ways to handicap and wager was very enlightening This book is not a gimmick. It's the real thing. No promises, just knowledge and advice. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Must-have book before you gamble on internet
There's no sure-fire way to beat internet gambling. All you can do is be prepared for what's out there and the traps to avoid. This book has it all. It'll get you started in a safe and informed manner. No cumbersome detail or nonsense about "tricks" that don't exist. Also, no boloney about beating the sites out of bonus cash. Brokopp lets you know there's a price to be paid for everything. If you're willing to devote hours of time to get $... bucks here or there, that's your business. This book is not about that. It's a common sense, get-started approach that's a quick and easy read. Also, the section on horse racing is outstanding. I look at that part of the book as an unexpected bonus.

There is better books out there
This book doesnt really cover much ground as far as internet gambling is concerned. A paragraph writeup on each of the 6 major gambling software providers and a brushup on the rules of the games. Thats for the casino part. The horse racing section gives a rundown on the different horse racing sites and some handicapping info. All in all I would rate this book 2 stars. The information is too general to be of much use.
