What if you held the keys to winning at gambling? Imagine that when you walk into a casino you know precisely what you want and how to get it.

Let's say you know the strict mathematical point that identifies what forms of gambling are for you -- and also how to prevent the casinos from manipulating you so deeply with your own nervous system that they make both THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE movies look like a church picnic . . .

. . . how much more confident would you feel? How much money would you stop losing and start winning? How much would your life change for the better? What would you buy with that extra money in your hands?

If you enjoy being a sheep who flocks to casinos because you have a deep-rooted, pathological need to give them your hard-earned money, stop reading now -- you need professional help I'm not qualified to provide. This article is only for people want to WIN at gambling.

a social gambler who just wants to have fun without losing more money than you can afford

a serious gambler who wants to start winning more money than you lose

. . . you are about to discover the most overlooked truths about how to win at gambling.

Frankly, checking either box puts you into the category of elite gambler. Because most people go to casinos with all the unthinking "street smarts" of moths flying full speed into the glass of a porch light.

Your first step is to read every word of this article.

Get real!

I got a news flash for you - the tooth fairy's a myth and Santa Claus retired to Florida.

Unless you go to a casino armed with *real* winning techniques of play . . . unless you know the games and bets to avoid . . .unless you know the few games and bets to play and how to play them . . .

. . . you're one of the sheep!

In the long run, the casino strips you of your hard earned cash. Thank you, because you keep the casinos in business so Take Charge gamblers can profit from them.

Every bet in every game has a mathematical "score" called "expected value."

This score is mathematical. You can break a human law and not get caught, but you cannot escape the law of expected value.

What is expected value? It is how much you will win or lose at that bet in the long run -- that is, if you keep making it over and over. It is expressed as the percentage of the money you are betting which you will win -- or, more likely, lose.

There are two kinds of expected values -- positive and negative. Those words apply to YOUR money! Make bets with negative expected values and you are guaranteed to lose money in the long run.

Make only bets with positive expected values and you are guaranteed to MAKE money in the long run.

Play blackjack by the seat of your pants like most gamblers do -- the expected value is negative 5 to 10% depending on just how badly you play. If you split eights, you might as well just throw all your cash onto the table and go home.

Play blackjack by counting cards -- the expected value is positive 1/2 to 1%, depending on the particular rules of the game.

That is why blackjack is well known as the game that can be beaten -- but most people don't, because they don't count cards.

Now, I'm not going to snow you here, unlike all those gambling books that promise to teach you "how to win" when they really mean "lose less."

The casinos do NOT make it easy for you. They do NOT have a lot of positive expected values bets. But they DO exist. I'm NOT telling you that Take Charge gambling is easy. If it were, everybody would do it and casinos around the world would close down.

Now, you might be thinking -- I already knew most casino games and bets are losers. But I can still win or lose. I can still walk away a winner without learning any math.

Here's where the casinos are masters of psychological manipulation. This is the second secret they do not want you to know about.

Yes, it's true that in the short run you can win or lose any game or bet.

But if you're reading this, guess what? I haven't gone fishing since I was a kid, but I can see that you've got a hook in your mouth bigger than any I ever used to catch a bluegill.

And it's all the more real because it's psychological -- that is, it's made of emotions instead of stainless steel.

And it's got a fancy name -- psychologists call it the Law of Intermittent Reinforcement.

This law is wired into your genes as deeply as the drive to eat and procreate.

Here's a simple example. Which boss would you work hard for?

Boss A -- Every Friday, Boss A tells you that you did a good job. Whether you spent the week giving 110% or goofing off. Doesn't matter. Every Friday it's, "Keep up the good work."

Boss B -- Boss B NEVER tells you that you did a good job. Doesn't matter that you worked 80 hours of unpaid overtime, sold a million dollars or saved the company from bankruptcy, Boss B never gives you the least sign of appreciation.

Boss C -- On Friday, Boss C tells you that you've done a good job for the week -- sometimes. Last week you did a great job and Boss C patted you on the back and really showed great appreciation. This week you also worked hard but Boss C said nothing.

Will you work hard for Boss A? Not for long, because you soon learn that you can sleep through your job and get the same appreciation as when you work hard -- so why work hard?

Will you work hard for Boss B? You will work just enough to keep your job -- until you find a new one where you are appreciated. Why work harder than that, since Boss B doesn't care?

The obvious answer is Boss C. Because this boss does show appreciation. Because this boss doesn't show it automatically, you'll work hard every week to earn it.

Slot machine A always pays off. Put in a quarter and win at least two more. Yippee! right? Wrong -- the casino will soon catch and fix this slot machine. They cannot stay in business by giving away money with your every quarter.

Slot machine B never pays off. How long do you stay there? Just long enough to figure out that you cannot ever win any money at this machine. Then you will move to a new one.

Slot machine C is like all slot machines in casinos around the world. It pays off intermittently. That is, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. On an irregular, unpredictable basis. Just when you've lost money long enough to feel discouraged, bingo! -- ten quarters hit the cup.

By the end of the night, you're probably still a loser -- because almost all slot machines have negative expected values -- but you feel as though you MIGHT have won, if only you'd had more quarters or more time to feed them into the machine.

That feeling keeps you coming back to lose your hard earned money.

That feeling is the hook in your mouth that enslaves you to the casino.

That feeling keeps the casinos in business -- because you CAN win in the short run. But if you keep on gambling in ignorance, your life is the long run and in the long run, the casinos win.

Hi, my name's Rick Stooker,

Like you, I've gambled and lost and I've gambled and won.

Unlike you until now, I've taken charge of my gambling career. I gamble only when I have an edge and only when the profit potential is worth my time.

99% of everyone you see in a casino is hoping for a short term win -- and sometimes getting it -- yet ignoring their long term losses.

If you think you will win by using some betting system that you bought through a mail order ad or over the Internet, you may be in even worse shape than the simple losers. You think you can win by betting up when you lose or riding a streak or some other misleading claptrap.

You won't become a winner by courting Lady Luck, playing "streaks" or sacrificing a goat at midnight.

Can you too really be one of the few gambling winners? The cards and dice don't know you from Nick the Greek. They don't know or care who you are, what your income is or how much you know. But you must know how to Take Charge --

• Your knowledge - what you don't know WILL hurt you!
• Your application of that knowledge
• Your skill level
• Your money
• Your time
• Your goals
• Your life
• What you want from gambling
• When you play, how much you bet, how long you play and, especially, IF you play!

If you want to gamble for money, you must know how to make only positive expectation bets and that you must resist the feeling that tells you to gamble when you should not.

I am NOT a hardcore, Nick the Greek type gambler. Nick the Greek died broke.

I have gambled off and on for years. When riverboats started opening up in the St Louis area, I checked them out to see if and how I could make money from them. Unlike most people I know who visit the boats as though giving away their hard-earned money was a party, I researched gambling AS A BUSINESS.

When you run a business, you deduct ALL your expenses from your sales. If your expenses are greater than your income, guess what? Your business is losing money and you better fix it or close it.

What's more, while in college years ago, I took a good statistics course. Amazing how a little real knowledge of probability changes your outlook on gambling.

Will Take Charge Gambling for Winners make you an instant winner?

Of course not - it's not a magic wand. You must read it and apply it.

Also, it is not specialized. It won't explain the details of how to win at the games. If it did, it'd be 5 times as long and cost 20 times as much.

You can find the details on craps, blackjack etc in many other books. You must learn specific techniques from the greatest experts. I point you to the best at every worthwhile gambling game. You'll save more than the cost of my book just by NOT wasting money on the many worthless or even dangerous gambling books that unfortunately are in every bookstore.

I don't want to hear how you made $136 last night playing craps or $47 last week playing a quarter slot machine. Short terms results are worse than worthless.

If you don't know what your edge against the casino is, you don't have one. That makes you a loser, until you get smart enough to quit -- or learn an edge.

If you don't know WHY you made that money one night, you're relying on luck: a sure recipe for disaster.

If you think gambling is about luck, you should never enter a casino. The gambling industry is about everything *except* "luck."

This sounds strange, but professional gamblers (part or full time) are NOT risk takers - they are risk managers. In the truest sense of the term, they are anything BUT "gamblers."

They are the opposite of YOU. They can lose in the short run but, by keeping their mind on the long run, they win.
