Blackjack for Winners

by Scott Frank

This author claims that tens and aces are not the most important cards in blackjack. His system utilizes a Core of cards which, as it gets heavier or lighter in the remaining deck, predictably influences the outcome of the game. Plus-minus card counting is ineffective and passe. It cannot deal with clumps or decks in a high/low order. The Core System overcomes these difficulties, strengthens your play with stiffs (hard 12-16), allows you to adjust your bet logically, and explains parts of the game that are normally attributed to luck.
