Wong Is A Blackjack Master 06 March, 2007 Stanford Wong has done a lot for the followers of the blackjack advantage-play movement by writing this book. It is an oldie but still goodie because it covers just about everything you need to know about the Hi-Lo (or High-Low) card counting system.
Wong is a master of the math of the game and many questions about the math behind why card counting works are answered in such a way that just about any reader can understand it.
A definite blackjack addition to your library. Even if you decide that the Hi-Lo is too difficult a card counting system to use, the ideas in this book will make blackjack play on the winning side that much more enjoyable and interesting.

Might Be The Best On The Subject 17 March, 2007 No matter what level of counting skills you have, this will always be a great refference for life. Detailed technical information backed by multiple simulations, too bad this great book got less reviews than some scammers did (John May).

This Guy Knows How To Win...wong! 25 July, 2007 I read this dirt bag book, followed the four rules (seen below), and lost all my money, my job, my wife and children, and my dignity. I recently realized something on the bus back to my one room apartment in the projects (my ex won't let the kids see where I live, and the courts ruled agaist me too...due to the gambeling)...Wong wouldn't be trying to make money selling this book if his techniques were worth a hoot. The casinos should pay Wong for writing this book...and they probably do.
Now I'm reading a book on guns.
(1) make the appropriate playing decision (e.g. hit / stand);
(2) bet more when odds favor that you will win;
(3) have a sufficient bankroll available; and
(4) play enough rounds

Great Book 09 March, 2007 Great book. Only book that mentions half counting method. Similar to many high level where you give double the points for cards that give u better odds. Like counting 5 as a 1point and 2 as a half point. (Can just double if you don't like half points). Anyway, just remember, that you will not become millionaire just because you can count. In fact, you might not even make a cent if you can count cards. Big fat myth spread by the casinos, not players. However, counting cards will give you a slight advantage. How slight, 1%-2%. But, that doesn't take away from the fact that you'll LOSE less money counting cards, and some days you might even win some. This book is a good resource. Not the best counting system, since there is no such thing, but any counting system is good. Go read several blackjack forums before purchasing any books. Be realistic folks. I count for fun and for getting comps, not to make money.
