Book Reviews of Busting Vegas: The MIT Whiz Kid Who Brought the Casinos to Their Knees

Book Review: Entralling story and full of action!
Summary: 5 Stars

Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down... reading it on the train, bus, and anywhere I had some free time!

The story hooks you right from the beginning, and sometimes the action gets to such a level that I had trouble believing that it is a true story.

A must read for anyone fascinated by the world of blackjack, card counting, and how to beat the casinos.
