How To Play Blackjack |
Another famous name in
the field of card counting is Andy Bloch, today perhaps best
known as a successful poker player. But it was also part of
blackjack team and released a DVD with instructions on
counting cards called "Winning Blackjack".
Bloch was also featured in the 2005 documentary on Blackjack
"The Hot Shoe" by David Layton. In the film Layton interview
card counters like Edward Thorp and Andy Bloch. During
filming, Layton has used the knowledge gained from the
interviews and played $ 5,000 budget for the film to make a
case study.
We would like to emphasize that with the publication of this
article have no intention of inviting our readers to try one
of these techniques for counting cards in a real casino.
Though counting cards is not illegal to calculate the poker
table, many Casino 'act as if it were.
Since casinos are considered as private property (at least
in the U.S.), have the right to refuse entry to anyone (and,
therefore, suggest that the counting of the paper should be
an illegal activity). And trust us when we say we will use
this right when they think someone is trying to count cards.
For us, counting cards is not nothing but strategic thinking
while playing. If you learn to combine a good blackjack
strategy with the strategy "card counting bullet-proof", you
will have an advantage over the casino ', and a good chance
of turning your knowledge into an important win at the
blackjack tables.
Just like a poker player decides to bet everything when he
or she has calculated that the odds of winning the hand are
in his favor, we believe that a blackjack player has the
right to raise the bet in situations where a successful
outcome of game is predictable.
For us all kinds of cheating, (as past-posting or
basis-dealing) should be considered illegal. The same
applies to the use of tools such as mirrors or computerized
calculators for phone. Keith Taft and son are a classic
example, and became famous in 1970 for the construction of
mechanical counting devices portable (see photo).
