If you're not into psychological style then you won't like this, since it contains heavy amounts of text. But it'll get your brain going, if that's your cup of tea. Permalink " "
Personally I would say it's a pretty close description. However I would argue that One Outs is even more interesting than Akagi, because the protagonist does not rely on mind-boggling luck.
The story revolves around Toua Tokuchi - a gambler with an amazing talent for manipulation. He joins the professional baseball team the Lycaons (a manga parallel of the real world Seibu Lions) as a pitcher under the One Outs contract, where he earns a lot of money for every out he gets, and loses ten times more for every point costs the team. Initially, the greedy owner of the team agrees to the contract, in the belief that he wouldn't lose money overall - Tokuchi's physical ability is unremarkable, particularly in the world of pro baseball. But he gets a nasty surprise when Tokuchi starts earning millions using his ability to psychologically overwhelm his opponents.
You might like this if you like Liar Game (same author), Akagi (similar premise) or Kaiji (same author as Akagi), and you might like those if you like One Outs. Also Death Note, but I suspect many of you will have read that already. Nevertheless, it shares the same psychological aspect. Permalink " "
