Mike Turner (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 15, 2005

For most people, the game of blackjack provides excitement and entertainment--and somewhat erratic results. Although we may know the basic rules and even a few strategies, most of us still manage to lose our stakes time and again. Now, gambling columnist and blackjack expert Mike "Bootlegger" Turner has written the perfect guide to help the average player turn the tables.

Bootlegger’s 200 Proof Blackjack begins by explaining the basics of blackjack. It then analyzes the most effective strategies for increasing your odds of winning. Included are discussions of money management for strategic and advantage play, tips for avoiding common pitfalls, and a unique section on using the casinos’ promotional money to play. For more passionate players, the book offers simple instructions on the best card-counting system for novice counters. Throughout, easy-to-follow tables and card hands illustrate strategies. And an added bonus, each book includes a pocket-sized "Quick-Reference Guide" that you can use at the tables.

If you enjoy walking out with the casino’s money, as well as your own, Bootlegger’s 200 Proof Blackjack is the place to start your winning education.

For those who want to learn more about winning at black jack and all that goes with it in casino play, this is well written, interesting and informative. Bootlegger is obviously a genius in this field, but writes so us regular guys who play BJ can win more often. He shares information from his network of friends who have written books on the same subject and are actively still involved in helping others enjoy the game. You're gona' love it!
