 Recycled Material September 2, 2007
7 out of 11 found this review helpful
I give this book 2 Stars, for the writing, its edgy and not a boring read like some other blackjack books. But its recycled material. If you are serious about becoming a card counter and have read numerous books before. You will not learn anything new.
It's 110 pages of him telling you to learn Basic Stategy, Learn Hi-Lo, Learn the Illustrious 18 and the FAB 4. Study them, remember them, and dont rush to the casino. While the rest of the 60 pages are filler pages. Telling you about how he made it onto the GSN as a host for the Blackjack Tournaments, and mentioning how he's not going to tell you his tournament secrets.
Actually disappointed in this book as it was supposed to be realised in the fall of '06, and had been pushed back until now ( 8/07 ).
Id suggest buying Stanford Wong's "Professional Blackjack" book and "Ultimate Blackjack Strategy Cards by Don Schlesinger" As well as doing a search for "Illustrious 18" and the "FAB 4" also by Don Schlesinger ( they are not books but index numbers you should know!). Also do a search for "betting ramp charts". As thats all this book teachs you.
 If I Can Do It Like a Pro, Anyone Can! August 23, 2007

This book delivers everything it promises and more! From inside tricks and tips to great stories of the "Bad Boy" in action, I couldn't put the damn thing down. Now I'm inspired to drive faster, play harder, count better and win bigger. Like I said, if I can do it, anyone can!
All the info you need to beat the casinos August 22, 2007
4 out of 7 found this review helpful
A couple of friends and I were having a massive Fiesta Party in Las Vegas and before we went, we wanted to see what we could learn about beating the house.
Card counting has been around for 50 years, but the problem with learning it is that all of the authors of previous books make you just want to skim the info. The subject is usually told in such a dry manner, you put the book down and never finish it. Dave Stann has solved this.
Stann writes about the subject in a way that is entertaining enough that you don't want to put the book down. As a result, you get entertained and, at the same time, end up armed with all of the information that you need in order to take money away from those annoying casinos.
This book is The Perfect!! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to become an advantage player.

I was surprised at how much I loved this book. Hollywood Dave isn't just one of the best blackjack players but he's a very entertaining and talented WRITER!! Even people who don't play blackjack will enjoy this book... some of the stories and crazy altercations that he shares are hillarious and unbelievable. He gives a fascinating look, behind the scenes of the world of blackjack in addition to offering very helpful for improving one's blackjack game!
