From Word of Sport:
A welcome reissue of this classic tale.
It works on two levels. On the one hand there's the story about the team - their personalities, their motivation - and on the other hand, there's the intrictate detail about the system used to break the bank.
Wonderfully paced, beautifully told, this really is worth a read. Think The Italian Job meets Bringing Down the House.
From the Publisher:
In the summer of 1966 Norman Leigh took a team to the Casino Municipal in Nice with the express intention of systematically winning large sums of money at roulette. Two weeks later the team was banned from every casino in France. Not for cheating, or rowdy behaviour - but for winning, methodically and consistently. An absolute classic detailing the events leading up to - and, most importantly, the system that allowed this to happen - an event held as impossible by all expert opinion - breaking the bank at roulette.
