Summary

I'll admit that I liked this book more than others who I have seen review it, although I'm probably more of an offshore betting junkie that your typical book reviewer.

I also find it hard to dislike Budin, apparently something several other reviewers had no problem doing. Sure, he comes off as brash, but the gambling world is full of large egos. Sometimes that works for the person, sometimes against, and in Budin's case it has certainly been to his advantage.

Budin has some interesting tales to share and everyone who reads the book will learn something new about the offshore betting world.

It's a quick, enjoyable read and is definitely worth the time.
