Why it’s on the list: A textbook rather than a trade book — the house-advantage mathematics, the pit, the cage, the comp system: how a casino is actually run as a business.

Where I saw it: A reply to @WillManidis’s question on X, June 2, 2025 — “what is the single best book you can read that will explain an entire industry?” — recovered from that thread and saved to Kyle’s Apple Note “Books To Read”. Thread: https://x.com/willmanidis/status/1929527399718269081
