Description: How Gamblers WinOr, the secrets of advantage playing exposedby Gerritt M. Evans A very nice reprint of the second (1868) edition of this desirable book. While the author of the 1868 second edition of this book is attributed simply to “A Retired Professional,” we need only look back to the 1865 first edition to learn that the author was Gerritt M. Evans. Whether Mr. Evans had “cold feet” for having his name associated with the slightly enlarged second edition, or if it was a decision by the publisher to inject an air of mystery into the proceedings, we'll never know. We do know that Evans was the proprietor of a store in New York City, specializing in crooked cards, dice, and other items of interest to "advantage players" (a nice-sounding pseudonym for cheaters). See photos of Table of Contents and continuation page to see the information covered in this fascinating book.

Whitney, includes information about the author. Full-color cover. Sold for information only.
