Customer comments on this selection.
 Not a lifestyle for me, but thrilling to read about
I very much enjoyed the Smart Money. I'd always followed sports, but never knew much about the gambling side of it. And although nowadays the gambling side doesn't, or shouldn't, influence the sports too much, shades of it are everywhere. Just look at the ending of the Steeler's-Charger's game, with the "illegal pass." The spread made the news for the whole week. Thanks to Michael Konick, I knew what the whole story was about. And, while this lifestyle is definitely not for me, I greatly appreciated the window that Konick provided for me.
GOOD BOOK FOR THE MONEY
IT'S A GOOD BOOK FOR THE MONEY AND HAS A LOT OF HELPFUL INFORMATION.I ENJOYED READING THE BOOK.
 LA BS
The only thing bigger than the sports betting consortium that Michael Konik writes about is his ego. This book is an exercise in self-importance and self-aggrandizement. There really is no danger, it exists only in the mind of the writer. If you enjoy books about people who act like jerks to other people while borrowing someone else's thunder, this book is for you. This book has hardly anything of interest about sports gambling. For an interesting book about sports betting, read The Odds, by Chad Millan.
 Great book for the money. $5.99? How can you go wrong
Great book for the money. $5.99? How can you go wrong. I was recommended this book by a friend and it had some very helpful information. I own a lot of handicapping books and this one is one of my favorites.
Must read for anyone thinking of making sports betting a profession
If you think you can beat the Sportsbooks, this is a must read! It does not even attempt to tell you how to make money betting sports, so if that is what you are looking for... this book is not for you. If however you want to get a glimpse of what it is like to play cat and mouse with the bookmaker, I highly recommend this book... especially if you plan on betting over a Dime on your wagers!

br /This book is more or less a biography of one man's experience at betting big money in a Sportsbook; however it contains insights and behind-the-scenes perspectives that most of us will never see. You are able to get an understanding of how a Sportsbook really works, and the lengths they will take to keep anyone with an edge from winning their money.

br /I found the book to be a real page-turner. I have a great interest in sports betting, and this was my first inside view of what it is like to be big/smart money. I would describe it as an eye-opener for anyone who thinks they can beat the Oddsmakers at their own game. It is a good read, and I for one highly recommend it to all sports bettors.
