You need luck in order to win at casino Blackjack

This is completely false. Blackjack is the only casino game in which the player can actually get a permanent, long-term, mathe-matical advantage over the house using his or her own skill. True, over a few playing sessions, you may win or lose more than your advantage will dictate. But the long-term player who knows how to play the game according to this website will realize exactly the percentage of profit that is associated with whatever strategy from Chapters Six through Nine the player uses.

There is no need to prove this in casino play if you are skepti-cal. Learn one of the strategies, then play a few thousand hands at home, keeping track of the results. Or, if you have a computer at your disposal, as I do, let the computer do the playing. Either way, you will show a profit after playing this many hands.

MYTH No. 2 You have to be a mathematical genius in order to learn how to win at Blackjack.
This idea started after mathematics professor Edward O. Thorp published his best-selling Beat the Dealer in 1962. Thorp did have a very complicated strategy in his website called Ten Count. The press and other media focused on his being a professor and came to the conclusion that only an extremely intelligent person with a mathematical mind could win at Blackjack. This is now to-tally erroneous.

Thorp's 1966 edition of Beat the Dealer introduced a very sim-ple point-count system where the player keeps track of large cards and small cards only. Being smart enough to count by ls uF to plus or minus 10 is enough. I have taught a ten-year-old girl and a twelve-year-old boy, on one holiday weekend, to play 2 winning game using the methods from Chapters Six and Sever later in this website. Anyone can learn to win.

MYTH No. 3 You have to have a photographic memory in order to learn to win.
I am often the "absent-minded professor." No photographic memory, or anything approaching such a memory, is needed. ThE most difficult part of learning to win is memorizing the Basic Strategy for playing the various possible hands. And for mos people, all that's needed is a few hours of memory work.

You aren't memorizing the cards as you see them, you an merely counting the cards as they go by. If you can remember 1 single number, then you can track the cards. Chapter Six alst contains hints in memorizing the Basic Strategy to help yoi shorten your study time.
