      The Bettor's Guide - Jonathan Love

      This book is the two books in one!

      ––––––––

      Preface

      Do you need money? Do you find yourself searching for enough money for life’s little extras? Do you worry about your current financial situation more than anything else in the world? If you can answer yes to any of these questions, then please let me help you through your struggles, and please allow me to burden some of the heavy load that our current economy places upon everyone.

      As a young man I was just like most people. I had the a job that paid me just enough to not quit and it seemed almost impossible to climb the corporate ladder that always required more schooling, more experience, or more patience. I was at my wits end at the end of every month, until I decided to take life by the horns and make it mine, instead of being beholden to every boss or customer that decided to stroll through my life, while making me their momentary slave. 

      I will let you know one simple truth my friends and that is that the fix is in. We are not fighting a fair fight as we grapple with the economic situations that we are born into. I have found that the difference between wealth and poverty, is not hard work as some wealthy people might claim, but rather it is luck, skill and knowledge that separates the financially fit from the average Joes that tirelessly suffer day after day, just to earn a meager wage.

      I will be more honest with you, than I am with most people, when I mention, that I took less than honorable means to reach wealth in my younger days. Those who claim that I was a drug dealer, card shark and shady business man, would not be far from the truth. It took a long time for my conscience to wrestle my needs to the ground, but, when they did and I finally went straight, I was left with the knowledge necessary to alleviate the stresses that come from the overwhelming and daunting task of making a living without a job or boss.

      Many men have known riches and wealth, but, far less can claim to know freedom in this world that keeps us playing catch up, from the moment we finish high school, trade school, or college. The monetary systems at work in our economy and our stagnant job market, is too much for a person to bear sometimes, so I would like to offer you all that I have learned as a semi professional gambler.

      Let me free you from those shackles that keep you at a desk, while your life wastes away, let me free you from that hard work that keeps your back sore and your hands callused and let me free you from those bosses that seem to wake up on the wrong side of the bed, every single morning. Put my triumphs and failures to work for you as I pass on the tricks that made making money my trade. Sail away into the sunset of prosperity today. I have prayed for guidance to reach prosperity, I have worked my butt off for years, for employers that didn’t want to lend me a helping hand upwards and I have slaved away, day after day, while making only enough to feed my children, but enough was enough for me, and with this book I am hoping to allow you to say that enough is enough as well.

      Odds Table

      Below is an odds table. It is imperative that you keep this table in mind when gambling, especially when deciding how much to bet, compared to the pot, which I will go over in detail, later in my book. Also, please keep in mind that the odds table makes it appear, sometimes, as if its next to impossible for you or your opponent to receive a high ranking hand, but, keep in mind that the average poker player, on an average day, might see a hundred hands that are dealt while they play cards. The amount of hands dealt with in a day, means that someone is always getting a hand that should only occur very rarely, however, it’s a must that you know the odds in order to properly place an educated bet.
