Peter Griffin's classic work provides insight into the methods and numbers behind the development of today's card-counting systems. The explanations and techniques within provide the means for analyzing almost every aspect of a blackjack game, including determining the accuracy of a card-counting system, identifying the proper basic strategy for playing any number of decks and set of rules, and analyzing the betting and playing strategies for any system. Griffin delivers the seminal work on the mathematics of blackjack while writing in a style that entertains as well as teaches.
