Bill Zender knows the art of casino management. He's worked in, managed, and owned casinos for decades; been an enforcement agent for the Nevada State Gaming Control Board, spent time as an advantage player, and exploited the vulnerabilities of casinos from the civilian side of the tables.

In Casino-ology, he argues against excessive card-counter and shuffle-tracker countermeasures in favor of hand production to increase profits and details the dangers of customer-service breaches, ill-conceived non-negotiable-chip programs; and past-posting, marked-card, and false-shuffle scams.
