Beat the Players, by Bob Nersesian
Beat the Players, by Bob Nersesian
NEW BOOK
Beat the Players - Casinos, Cops and the Game Inside the Game by Bob Nersesian. This book should be read by everyone who sets foot in a casino: average casino patrons, skilled players, casino employees, and anyone else. It should be required reading for police officers, regulators, other public officials, and attorneys who may represent any of the aforementioned.
Bob Nersesian is an attorney who represents victims of casino wrongdoing against patrons. In an enjoyable writing style, he takes a look at the often too-cozy relationship between casinos, police, and regulators. He discusses specific cases and dispenses sound, practical advice that patrons, casinos and public officials would be wise to heed. Cases discussed include Nevada and other jurisdictions.
Chapters include: Your Money or Your Liberty; Scary Cop Statements; They'll Take Your Liberty Anyway; Gaming Agents Speak; The Take of the State; Rules for Casino Patrons; Gambling at the Legal Limits; Cops Hate Card Counters; Griffin Investigations; Casinos Cheat With Impunity; A Judicial and Government Overlay; Finding a Nickel Brings Trouble; Names and Aliases; The Security Office and Surveillance Functions, and Casinos and Cops.
Appendices include Nevada Cheating and Detention Laws with Commentary; Other Nevada Gaming Laws of Interest; Gaming Cases of Interest, and Nevada Gaming Regulations with Commentary.
The 320-page book includes a bibliography and an index.

Beat the Players, by Bob Nersesian
The title says it all!  
I'm especially interested in the appendix with his commentary on the detention laws. I’ll bet he’s got some great insight in the realm of player‘s rights and civil liberties. This definitely sounds like a must read for anyone playing seriously.
