Excellent read for low roller
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Having been a long time subscriber to the Las Vegas Advisor newsletter, I had heard many good things about Jean Scott, and her approach to getting the most out of a low-roller's gambling budget. I'm very glad I bought the book. Jean's strategies are range from ones that everyone can use to ones that require a little more nerve. She lays them out, and you decide which ones you want to use. I'm heading back out to Las Vegas in a couple of weeks, and I plan to read the book again before I go.

Jean Scott's book covers it all in a very easy to understand Format. For everybody who has heard about FREE buffets, rooms and flights, this book tells you how YOU, the low roller, can get them for yourself. She also explains what to look for and what to do before sitting at Video poker machines, Blackjack tables and other Games, to maximize your Profits and Minimize your Losses. The Chapters regarding Slot Clubs make The Frugal Gambler a Must Have book for the casual-to-serious gambler. Jean Scott makes it easy and fun to get Freebies and explains clearly how you can also do it easily. Loved the book. Read it twice in the first week and passed it along to a friend before his trip.
Excellent Comp Information for Low Rollers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Anyone who plays table games, slots or video poker for any amount of time, will more than pay for this book in comps if you don't take advantage of the system allready. As some readers will tell you, some of the information seems more like "work". However there are many easy things that can save you Hundreds of dollars. I know it has saved me more than I ever knew possible. Nice job Jean.
A great overview of the comp system!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is a great overview of how to get the most out of the comp system. Scott talks mostly about video poker, but much of her advice also applies to table games.
I would have read the book "The Frugal Gambler" years ago.

If gamblers insist on playing negative games they should at least make the best percentage bet for the player and take full advantage of the comp system and other casino promo's to ease the loss.My game of choice is video poker and with it along with the comp system I am able to spend 100 nights a year free (I could actually stay free 365 days a year if my other life commitments would let me) and I eat all I want for freeI wish everyone would become an expert in thier positive game of choice and I wish I would have read the book "The Frugal Gambler" years ago. It would have saved me thou$and$.
