Arnold Snyder needs no introduction. One of the seven original members of the Blackjack Hall of Fame, he’s a prolific author of blackjack books, former publisher of the prestigious Blackjack Forum, and a blackjack advantage player extraordinaire. In his first book in many years, Arnold is back with what is shaping up to be his greatest work ever. Radical Blackjack is a memoir, how-to, and exposé all wrapped up in a single book. From his life as a starving letter carrier to making $100,000 bets that he could only win by losing, this is a story that blackjack aficionados and gambling enthusiasts have wanted for decades. And it’s all true. Snyder details his adventures in hole carding and shuffle tracking, milking loss rebates; exploiting online casino bonuses and affiliate deals; using camouflage so effective that pit bosses considered him the world’s worst blackjack player; playing on teams and with investor money, and maximizing results when playing with partners; while topping it all off with miscellaneous stories so wild they don’t fit into any chapter! If you read only one gambling book this year, Radical Blackjack should be it.

Professional blackjack player Kevin Blackwood shares his million-dollar winning strategies for mastering the odds and consistently beating the house at their own game. Play Blackjack Like the Pros is the requisite introduction to the modern game of blackjack, including high and low stakes casino, shoe games (several decks shuffled together), online, and tournaments. Blackwood begins with the basic rules of play and then moves on to teach his proven card-counting method, broken-down into three levels: novice, recreational, and professional. He also covers camouflaging techniques (it's perfectly legal to count cards, but if the house catches you they will kick you out), money management, and team play. Blackwood includes many stories of his and other professionals' triumphs at the tables and keeps the highly technical language that bogs down most gaming books to an absolute minimum. Play Blackjack Like the Pros is written in the style of Phil Hellmuth's Play Poker Like the Pros using easy-to-understand lessons that all levels of players can quickly benefit from. Blackwood is one of the world's top card counters. He began with only a few hundred dollars and has won over a million playing blackjack. In Play Blackjack Like the Pros he demonstrates how to earn over $10,000 a month from just a few days work. Blackjack is set to balloon in popularity. Ben Mezrich's book on the MIT card counting team Bringing Down the House was on the New York Times bestseller list for weeks and is being made into a movie staring Kevin Spacey. Blackjack Tournaments are growing in popularity with many of the top casinos offering large prize pools. Online Blackjack is currently a multi-million dollar industry. Blackwood keeps the highly technical language that bogs down most gaming books to an absolute minimum. Foreword by Stanford Wong, author of Professional Blackjack and the master of modern card counting.
