Blackjack For Blood: The Card-Counters' Bible, and Complete Winning Guide

by Bryce Carlson AWESOME! The best Blackjack book in print. Period., July 28, 2000 Reviewer: A reader from Newport Beach, CA This book has it all. It's mathematically accurate, highly informative, up-to-date, and beautifully written. In addition, Carlson's anecdotes of high-roller life in the casino fast lane make for a really fun, entertaining read. Carlson is both a mathematician and a successful high-stakes Blackjack player, and he presents the concepts behind card counting in an easy-to-understand way that is informative, practical and very entertaining. This book is just chock full of priceless information. It presents the theory of card counting, basic strategy, game selection, camouflage, casino comportment, special "commando" tactics, money management, risk of ruin, etc., etc., as well as Carlson's own Advanced Omega II System, which all the experts agree is the strongest BJ system going. AOII is a level-2 card-counting system that I've found easy to learn and easy to use. And it works! It really gets the money. K-O and Hi-Lo don't come close. This book is da bomb! If you could only have one book on BJ, this should definitely be it. Highly recommended. Great book, April 19, 2002 Reviewer: phillip thompson from west monroe, LA United States   This book is only a 2-level system that has a playing effiency of the 3 and 4 level systems. The playing efficiency is calculated independently by a mathmetician in the theory of BJ. So this stat is not Carlson's smoke blowing , but the facts of mathmatics. On top of that the book is well written and very motivational. The author explains the ups and the DOWNS of a BJ player, and how to manage the money accordingly. Other books to read: BJ as a business, the theory of BJ, professional BJ, Million dollar BJ, take the money and run. Reviews provided by Amazon.com
