“A PhD in wickedness.”
— Darwin Ortiz, author of Gambling Scams
“As someone who spent 28 years surveilling, investigating, and arresting some of those featured in this book — and others just like them — I only wish it had come out sooner, because a few more of them might’ve ended up in handcuffs.”
— James Taylor, Chief of Enforcement, Nevada Gaming Control Board (Retired)
“…an unvarnished glimpse into the rarely-seen underworld of gambling cheats, a slice of history that is woefully under-recorded.”
— David G. Schwartz, author, Something for your Money: A History of Las Vegas Casinos
A stunning hardcover book with 448 pages and an additional 32 pages of gloss images, Thieving Bastards: True Confessions of the World’s Greatest Cheats is the first volume in a series and delivers nine gripping investigative interviews. Also features an extensive glossary of cheating terminology, a guided explanation of cheating techniques, and a detailed index that will be of use to researchers.
