A recent Supreme Court decision that opened the door to legal sports gambling nationwide will, in time, spark so much sports betting that it will make the explosion of poker look like a little firecracker by comparison. Only one book has ever been written by a sports book director and that was 40 years ago; the market is ripe for a contemporary inside look at this arcane yet engrossing subject. The few books on sports betting assume a familiarity with the associated specialized words and numbers. Then One Day... uses both liberally, but explains them thoroughly; readers who finish the book will be conversant in all the fine points. The stories themselves are not only instructive, but also engaging and amusing-from the mob's fast and loose management of the sports books to a pair of brothers who lost big with a sure-fire system, one of whom later served eight years as president of the United States. The author, Chris Andrews, is a well-known personality on sports gambling talk radio. He makes weekly appearances on VSiN (Vegas Sports Information Network), which is broadcast from his own casino. He also appears regularly as a sports-betting expert on Guessing the Lines, his sports-betting stories at the end of the show led directly to this book. Huntington Press, Las Vegas Advisor, and publisher Anthony Curtis have long-established relationships with a diverse and extensive network of media contacts, including major national and international outlets such as USA Today, Wall Street Journal, Cigar Aficionado, Spike TV, TMZ, Vice.com, Good Morning America, the Today Show, and the Travel, Discovery, and Learning Channels. Huntington Press' primary website, LasVegasAdvisor.com, attracts approximately 300,000 uniques and 4 million page views per month and is frequently employed to promote new and topical Huntington Press titles. This ability to profile and promote products via our own online (and print) publications is supplemented by opt-in interest-specific email lists comprising 100,000+ customers and members of the media. Its titles are often promoted through social media outlets.
