After a thought provoking discussion of accepted basic blackjack strategy, the author presents his "Percentage Play" strategy (based on the frequency of cards in a 6-deck shoe), but doesn't back it up with any computer simulations or even stories about its use in actual play. Does the author use this system? Does he win when using it? You can't tell from reading this book. I acknowledge some of the weaknesses in the basic strategy that the author points out, but at least it is backed up by scientific and anecdotal studies. This book fails to present a viable alternative.

This program works, and I am excited about the possibility of more work from Mr. Summers. This book is well worth your time and money !
