I like this book. I consider it a good book for a beginning counter. The intermediate player may be able to glean a few helpful tips from it as well. But the advanced counter will gain little, if anything, from reading this book. As with Wongs other books, there is some information that is still useful in todays game and there is other information that is totally antiquated. If you can't discern between the two then reading this book can lead you in the wrong direction and wind up costing you a lot more than the cover price. This game is extremely difficult to beat. It takes a lot more than reading a few books and practicing on a computer simulation.

What a great read! Wong has done it again. If you are a serious blackjack player, or you think that you may want to become one, then you need to have this book in your library. I also own his book Professional Blackjack, and there are some similarities between the two. For example, they both teach you B.S. and the Hi-Low, but this book offers a great discussion about how to get away with your newly learned skills, along with topics about tipping dealers, games to avoid, and training techniques. Plus the price isn't bad either. Id reccommend it to anyone!

Very good informational book about how to take down Vegas. Also a very entertaining read due to Stanford's many stories from personal experience.

This is an excellent book, however after getting 1/2 way through it, the glue of the binding did not hold and pages from the front quarter of the book came unglued from the binder and are falling out of the book. I wish there was an exchange policy for defective book bindings like this.
