This great classic has sold half-million copies since the 1960s when it was originally published. Thorp is considered the 'Father of Modern Blackjack Play.' His theories helped develop a count system that revolutionized the way players and casinos look at the game. An absolute 5-star must for anyone who intends to play blackjack.

This is the long-awaited sequel to the author's best selling (out of print) classic, Turning the Tables on Las Vegas. With a quarter century's worth of experiences in high-stakes gambling, Andersen here forges a blueprint for success in blackjack, poker and other games of life. He addresses virtually every aspect of blackjack advantage play: game selection, longevity, tipping, employee relations, guises, disguises, false identification, credit, comps, risk, heat, dress, demeanor and even diet. Peppered with anecdotes and stories, the book takes you on a vicarious journey into the rarefied realm of the blackjack pro and shows you what it takes to be one.
