Synopsis "It Was Never a Gamble: The Life and Times of an Early 1900s Gambler and Hustler"
It Was Never A Gamble is the true-life story of an early 1900s gambler and hustler. It chronicles the life of Jimmy James. Born in 1900 and leaving the family farm at the age of 14, he made a living by taking advantage of other's greed. He learned early that to get ahead he may have to bend a few rules. But, in a time when the rules were few and the enforcement was often left to one's own conscious, there could be big rewards for the person with the intestinal fortitude to bend the rules. From the worn down storefront street games to the most luxurious hotels and clubs of the times, Jimmy James was able to mingle with the common street grifter s and rub shoulders with some of the most influential people of the times as he made his way across the country. This is the story of one man's life journey through many adventures, twists and turns, ups and downs. Cards, dice, roulette...no game was ever a gamble. This is the story of Jimmy James, hustler and gambler.
