Professional Blackjack by Stanford Wong

This is currently the best blackjack book for learning how to play blackjack in my opinion. Even though it was originally written in the 1970′s this is the one book that I always take with me on all of my gambling trips. It contains a basic strategy for single and multiple decks. There is, also, a powerful simple plus and minus strategy for card counting for single and multiple decks with differences for the dealer hitting soft 17 and standing on soft 17.


If you seriously want to win at blackjack this is the one book that is a must have. Once you become a proficient card counter you will have to know how to win with out being asked not to play. Wong devotes a chapter on how to win with out being kicked out. There is an excellent chapter that explains your long term risk and ruin and how much money you need to back you depending on how much you like to bet.


Over betting is, probably, one of the main things that a lot of players do that causes them to lose their bankroll. Wong explains this in great detail.


I have seen other posts say that you can bet 2 to 3% of your bankroll and you will make a lot of money fast. In realty betting 1% will lesson your chances of going broke. You may not win as fast if luck is with you but will you will still be in the game if your luck heads south for awhile.


Do get this book if you are serious about winning.
