Great Book
The author did a great job of informing his readers about the fascinating world of casino cheating. I know some of the people mentioned in this book and the stories are all true. This in not a work of fiction like other casino cheating books. Asiel is the real deal. This is a must read book.

Good vs Evil, A Most Interesting Book
This book is a must-read for casino lovers. It's very well written, action-packed, exciting and the title really fits the story. The writer caught the casinos sleepwalking and took advantage of them with his bag of tricks. It's great to see the casinos getting beat for a change. I didn't know casinos had actually cheated the public until I read this book where the writer quotes documented evidence of casinos closed for cheating. Too bad it isn't a novel with a sequel to follow.

The author lays out his memoir in a unique style all his own just like his and his partner's casino experiences
Entertaining and Revealing. A unique "Go West Young Man" success story that couldn't happen again. The author writes in a style all his own just like the way he describes his and his partners casino experiences. Good reading for anyone interested in adventure stories and inside information about poker and casinos. .

Success in crossroading or casino cheating could only endure if you were extremely honest in cutting money (dividing profits).
The authenticity of the book is so accurate. I lived the same life as Asiel and he depicts it as it really was, and that period cannot be duplicated.The thing in dislike most is that most readers won't be able to feel what Asiel went through.
