Overview

The Art of Blackjack is a comprehensive guide to the game of Blackjack suitable for players of various skill levels. What makes this book unique among the many that are available is that the author has been on both sides of the table. D. N. Thompson has over a decade of experience on the inside of the pit as a Croupier (casino dealer). Another unique aspect of this book is the subject of tactics. Many books cover the mathematical aspects of the game but mathematical advantage cannot be realized without a knowledge of tactics. The strategic methods outlined in the book are the tried-and-true joined with the special tactical knowledge that one could only acquire as both a dealer and advantage player. Instead of reinventing the wheel, D. N. Thompson covers the High-Low card counting method, the Half Kelly which is based on the Kelly Criterion and the Strategy developed half a century ago by the Four Horsemen of Aberdeen. The book contains information about the fascinating individuals who developed the methods outlined in the book such as Edward O. Thorp, J. L. Kelly and Claude Shannon.
