Blackjack Attack, 2e

Summary: Mind Boggling Book
Review: This was the third blackjack book I've read, after KO Blackjack and The World's Greatest Blackjack Book. I read that Don Slessinger is the greatest auhtority in the world on blackjack. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. This book was incoherent. I found World's Greatest Blackjack Book much better and KO Blackjack was also better. I learned a few things from this book but not enough for [the price]!

Summary: A classic
Review: This will be a classic book in the blackjack world just like Super/System is for poker.
1) Yes the book goes into a lot of details, but this essentially proving his points. You don't want to blindly use the Illustrious 18 without knowing for sure that it is mathematically sound. I admit a lot of times the mathematical derivations get tedious but it's nice to know if you are industrious to use the methods for your own calculations.
2) There is no counting system taught here; Don isn't a counting system producer. He is more of an player-analyst.
3) For beginners, the stuff is probably way over your head. Otherwise chapters 10 and 11 are worth the book itself.
