Description
In this informative and entertaining book, learn from Cousin Sal how not to gamble your life away - along with many other life lessons - so you don't have to learn the hard way.
Over the last 40 years, Cousin Sal has made bets with doctors, lawyers, teachers, agents, bookies, writers, comedians, radio DJs, TV producers, baseball players, front office executives, bandleaders, movie stars, publicists, weed lab owners, hedge fund operators, and even professional wrestlers. From his early days growing up in Brooklyn and Long Island flipping baseball cards to now hosting podcasts and TV shows and managing several offshore accounts we don't talk about, Cousin Sal has truly become the average American sports fan's go to source for gambling tips.
So here's how not to do it....
With hilarious tales of love and loss, winning and (a lot) of losing, crazy family and fatherhood, and a life saga that inspired the Phil Collins' song, "Against All Odds", Cousin Sal has now written THE Vegas super-system, MIT-algorithmic, sharp-approved book for how to gamble like a pro - or at least not how not to go broke and lose your kids to Child Protective Services.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"If you think the way I do, then you must be asking yourself if this truly is the most ridiculous cover for a book you've ever seen. Just wait...when you open the book, it actually makes the cover look normal. It's not dark yet, but it's getting there. Cousin Sal is a very smart and brilliant man with as humble a heart as I've been around. He wants to make others happy and sometimes he does with his checkbook. But I am truly lucky to call him a friend. For life. You will love this book." (Tony Romo)
"For the last two decades, Cousin Sal has been the Gambling Butch Cassidy to my Gambling Sundance Kid - and that's a crucial analogy, because they both died at the end of the movie." (Bill Simmons)
"Sal's a good father and husband, and I have never seen him take a drink. But he makes up for it by being the most degenerate gambler I have ever seen." (Johnny Knoxville)
"A rollicking...account of the foibles of a man who’ll bet on anything." (Kirkus)

Good stories from Sal
Decent book, if you're a fan of Sal's. Good stories, and many of them were quite entertaining.

Ehhhh...it was alright.
It's a fairly entertaining listen. Sal is a funny guy, and he does a good job narrating his book. The trouble is the book doesn't know what it wants to be. Part autobiography, part comedy routine, part Intro to Gambling for Dummies. Honestly there really isn't a whole lot about gambling in the book. There is a lot of funny anecdotes, however I was kind of expecting a more detailed look inside Sal's most amazing victories or crushing defeats as a bettor. But it's a decent time passer, however forgettable it may be.
