In sports betting, winning is hard enough. Once you’re proven to have an advantage, casinos will refuse your action and getting your bets in becomes harder than even making the winning picks in the first place. In this book, the author joins a sports betting guru to help place bets all over Vegas. Once the books find out what he’s up to, Konik gets cut off and is forced to scramble to find ways to adapt. Prior to becoming a front man, Konik’s biggest bet was $200. Needless to say, he finds it difficult to go back to betting his own small stakes.
