Making The Book Pay!

About the Book

Making The Book Pay! This is an account of the experiences of someone who has worked in the betting industry for more than 20 years. Though there are others of lengthier experience with perhaps greater tales to tell, they have not committed their tales to print. So the reader will have to judge this account albeit with its obvious limitations. It is written with a sense of humour, hopefully shared by all if not most of those who read it. The views expressed will most certainly not be shared by all – but read it you must! Len Anthony
