''Chance And Luck'' is a book written by Richard Anthony Proctor in 1889. The book is a comprehensive discussion of the laws of luck, coincidences, wagers, lotteries, and the fallacies of gambling. It provides a detailed analysis of the various games of chance, including poker and martingales. The author explores the mathematical principles that govern these games and the strategies that can be used to increase one’s chances of winning. Proctor also delves into the psychology of gambling, discussing the emotional and mental factors that influence a person’s decision to gamble. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the mathematics and psychology of gambling, and it remains a classic text in the field to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
