Overview

Since the publication of the bestselling The Frugal Gambler in 1998, Jean Scott has been busily plying her low-roller trade in casinos throughout America and sharing her exploits with the world via appearances on "Dateline," "48 Hours," and the Travel Channel.

The first Frugal took the gambling world by storm by showing how small players can get in on the bonanza of casino giveaways, including free rooms, free food, and free shows. Now Queen Jean is back with a veritable truckload of new frugal advice for recreational gamblers who want to stretch their money and fun in casinos.

More Frugal Gambling is a 400-plus-page powerhouse packed with new techniques for navigating the fast-growing and constantly changing casino scene. Jean hits all the hotspots of low-level advantage play, including the ins and outs of slot clubs, cashback, bounce-back, and comps; finding and beating promotions and tournaments; and using coupons, casino mail offers, and slot hosts to get the freebies that most assume are beyond their reach.

Special sections from Jean's daughter, Angela, assure that beginners and casual player's aren't left out.

More Frugal Gambling is just that: more of what made the Gambling Grandma the favorite of hundreds of thousands of satisfied frugal aficionados.

About the Author

At first glance, Jean Scott appears to be what she is—your average 60-something retired English teacher from the Midwest. In her secret life, though, she's the most successful casino low roller in the country. Dubbed the "Queen of Comps" by CBS' "48 Hours," by using slot clubs, taking advantage of promotions and contests, gambling with coupons, and exploiting everything in the casino world that's even remotely vulnerable, Scott has developed a technique for getting everything she wants from the casinos from Las Vegas to Atlantic City. She has been featured on "Dateline," "Hard Copy," "To Tell the Truth," numerous Travel and Discovery channel documentaries, and "48 Hours."

Angela Sparks, the Frugal Princess, is Jean Scott's daughter. A chip off the frugal block, she is following in her mother's footsteps and becoming an expert low roller in her own right. She lives with her career Army Ranger husband Steve and two grade-school children near Ft. Benning, Georgia, until Uncle Sam decides to send them elsewhere. She keeps busy with volunteer work and substitute assignments in the school system.
