Synopsis

The story I tell is from my own casino High Roller gambling experiences in the early 80s when casino gambling became legal in Atlantic City. At that time only Nevada and New Jersey had commercial casinos. Today there are 44 states with some form of casino gambling. Some states have commercial and tribal casinos. I’ve written “COMPED” as fiction because if I would have written as nonfiction, what is known today as the Gaming industry would have stopped its publication. That may sound like a robust claim, but after you read or listen to “COMPED” you will understand why. What I've written won't teach you how to beat the casinos it will teach you why you shouldn't try. It will also enlighten you on how we ended up with casinos in most of our backyards along with how a casino operator became our 45th president.
