 A Terrific Read ! Jul 25, 2006
A. Roman is the ULTIMATE BASEBALL HISTORIAN, FAN, EXPERT & STATISTICIAN. He is masterful & detailed in sharing his knowledge on trends & game situations throughout the century old sport, including modern day baseball. Not only I learned a great deal, but Roman took me back down to memory lane to the 1986 playoffs when I first fell in love with the game of baseball and the New York Mets. I highly recommend this book; it is a terrific read with tremendous insight; a "WEALTH" of information; one of the best baseball reference books on the market; "SPREAD" THE WORD...GET THIS BOOK NOW ! Knowlegde is Power; Intelligence is a gift/a priveledge; Thank you Mr. Roman for sharing both !

THE ART OF BETTING ON BASEBALL Jul 21, 2006
Great In-sight and innovative ideas to Betting on the great National Past-Time.I really liked it.
If you're looking for a get-rich scheme then look else where
(and might be looking for a long*long*time, too!).
But for the average income gambler like myself you'll make good use of the authors betting theories,money management and discipline guidelines..

THE ART OF BETTING ON BASEBALL Jul 03, 2006
THE ART OF BETTING ON BASEBALL - opens a new window in sports betting. I get exactly what the author is trying to convey.
Using the same logic from following the logic of military strategy, and investing following trends and Pitching statistics called "splits" along with the story line of the game previews is enough for the average bettor to come away with a succesful proability of what team will win a ball game or not.
If you want to immerse yourself in needless mathematical equations that have as much luck as prediciating the winner of a ball game as that of picking the winner in a horse race then go somewhere else.

 Not for the sophisticated sports gambler Jun 27, 2006
I'll get to the point: This book is a waste of time for readers who already have some introduction to baseball and gambling and are looking to get a winning edge. If you are looking for bet ideas from a winning gambler that are shown to statistically outperform the casino odds historically, look elsewhere.
Instead you will find a handful of bet ideas, lost in a sea of painfully detailed play-by-play summaries of the events of the 2004 season, tied together clumsily by a universal idea of "military maxims". The bet ideas are justified with some general commentary followed by "here's one time that the bet worked in the 2004 season", which goes on for pages and is hardly convincing. The misspellings are frequent and get annoying.
In summary, you don't need to pay 14 bucks for detailed summaries of the 2004 season - go to espn.com.

The Art of Betting on Baseball Feb 18, 2006
This is an excellent book for the avid baseball fan and baseball gambler.The first chapter reviews the criteria to rate an online betting site and also provides some of the more reliable sites to use and also provides other websites that provides the best sport betting info for free.In the next chapters The author then sets forth simple theorems and rules to guide the bettor throughout the long baseball season. Combining the actual story line,the games pitching matchups and statistics, with the use of sound strategic thought based on the science and art of military command is a winning strategy for baseball betting. This book without a doubt helps the baseball bettor find the most lucaritive betting situations to gamble on, without all the charts and statistics - therein the "art".
It helped me make money !
