Gambler Secrets From a Life at Risk by Billy Walters - PDF book, Ebook PDF download, Digital Book, PDF book.

Everyone gets lucky. No one controls the odds like Billy Walters. Widely known as the "Michael Jordan of sports betting," Walters is a living legend among sports bettors in Las Vegas and around the world. Walters has become a millionaire, placing hundreds of millions of dollars in gross bets annually. In one instance, he bet $3.5 million on the Super Bowl.

Competitors desperate to figure out his betting techniques have hacked his phones, cloned his cell phone, ransacked his trash cans, and bribed his employees.

After decades of avoiding the spotlight and desperately guarding his keys to success, Walters has now reached an age where he wants to share his wisdom with future generations of sports bettors. The Gambler is more than a traditional autobiography.

Not only does it tell the story of his American dream, it also reveals in detail the secrets of Walters' proprietary betting system.

Walters also breaks his silence about his long and complicated relationship with Hall of Fame professional golfer Phil Mickelson. On a typical gameday weekend filled with college and professional sports, Walters bet $20 million. A small sum for a wealthy man like he is today, but an incredible sum for a child raised by his grandmother in extreme poverty in rural Kentucky.

By the time Walters was nine years old, he was a shark hustling billiards and throwing pennies. As a young man, he set records as a used car salesman, hustled golf and gambled. Eventually, he moved to Las Vegas and became part of a computer group that revolutionized sports betting strategies and famously became the first syndicate to apply algorithms and data analysis to sports gambling. He overcame his addiction and made his millions while outwitting notorious organized criminals in Martin Scorsese's film Casino.

In Gambler, Walters shows off everything he has learned about sports betting. First, he teaches bettors how to develop sophisticated betting strategies and handicapping systems with the information at their fingertips.

Home field advantage, individual player value, injuries and illnesses, weather forecasts, each team's past schedule, travel distances and difficulty levels, stadium quirks, turf types, and much more.

Walters categorizes each variable by the betting systems and money management principles he has honed his craft on over decades.

A self-made man who has won, lost it all, and won it all back again, Walters has lived an American life that is outlaw-like, unique, and wildly appealing. The Gambler is at once a gripping autobiography, a shocking confessional book, and an indispensable guide to reaching the top.
