Inhaltsangabe:

For eight weeks in early 1994 the author played blackjack in Las Vegas for stakes of up to two hands of $200. This book describes what happens at every one of the 269 sessions that he played. Perry describes the cover he used, the heat he received, dealer and player interactions, and the mental and financial ups and downs which he experienced. Originally published in February 1997 and long out of print, we're making it available again.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Stuart Perry was born in 1953 and graduated from Oakland University in Michigan with a degree in psychology. He has always had an intense interest in the gaming and statistics fields. For a good number of years Stuart made a living betting and writing about sports, especially pro football. He is currently a consultant on sports betting in the NFL and NBA. In late 1992, Stuart discovered blackjack. For about a year, he studied and practiced the game very seriously before embarking on the two month Las Vegas odyssey, chronicled in this volume. Stuart says that his knowledge of statistics was very helpful to him in learning about the expectations of blackjack. Stuart resides in Yonkers, NY.
