Wikipedia is a great source of knowledge on the Web. Here is a list of Wikipedia articles that you might consider reading if you want to dig deeper into gambling theory.

Martingale (betting system) – only recommended to gamblers with infinite wealth.

Gambler’s Fallacy – read this before you keep playing roulette obsessively at the Monte Carlo Casino.

Optional stopping theorem – the beauty of mathematics is that it can objectively explain pretty much everything in real life… for example: when to stop!? 🙂

Expected utility hypothesis
