Review Calculated Bets: Computers, Gambling, and Mathematical Modeling to Win
by STEVEN SKIENA
Description
If you are looking for a primer that will efficiently help you in designing, developing, and implementing a gambling system capable of exponential profits, then Calculated Bets: Computers, Gambling, and Mathematical Modeling to Win is the guide you need. True to its title, this book presents a step-by-step process on how to develop a conducive and highly-accurate prediction and gambling system. Throughout the discussion, the author exposed how he utilized digital simulations and mathematical modeling strategies to forecast results of jai-alai matches, all while accurately betting on them successfully. Using this kind of technique, the author managed to increase his initial stake by 500% in just a year.
His strategies and methods highly appeal to anyone, and after reading this book, one will acquire knowledge on appropriate ways to approach, analyze, bet, and win on jai-alai matches. Infused with entertaining and humorous narrative, the author laid out life-long inclination with digital forecasting and sports events. In addition to this, he also discusses various gambling systems for a lottery, roulette, blackjack, and stock market, all of which are put under assessment to determine whether viable or not.
If one wishes to have adequate knowledge on trading system programming, digital casinos and gambling, the logic behind mutual funds, the use of mathematical and statistical frameworks for election, correlation, and causation, make sure to have this book up for a read.
