Few people manage to make money from gambling: fewer still make a living from it. Written for
hardened and novice sports bettors alike, Joseph Buchdahl's Fixed Odds Sports Betting examines,
through various numerical techniques, how fixed odds punters may learn to beat the bookmaker, protect
profits through a sensible approach to risk management, and turn high-risk gambling into a form of low-
risk investment.
