Blackjack A Winners Handbook

Blackjack A Winners Handbook is without a doubt, the most comprehensive book on the shelves today. Yes, it is true that, Jerry has a Blackjack course to sell, along with his book. I bought that course 6 years ago, and have "never" had a year since that did not make me a "very good profit". I do keep records which is part of the course. It is not based on superstition, or useless types of progression, regression betting. It is based on "sound research" done by Jerry, his students, and, instructors over his vast years of experience.He teaches you to find a winning table before you even sit down, then guides you through the steps on how to read the type of game it is, as well as money management, in taking a profit from the table whether, it be small, or large.He has taught thousands of people to be a better player, and most, unless deceased, continue as students, and friends to this very honourable writer and gentleman. Yes, I am biased, and now for the past 4 years a instructor for him, but,with a very good reason. He has made me, and countless others all winners.By the way, none of us, as instructors, recieve any pay for the help we give, his students. It is done because it works, and we believe in it. Best regards,Donnie Bond. AKA 007...Canada

Refreshing Approach to BJ

I found this book a very refreshing approach to blackjack. Real time experiences at the tables and sharing the ideas that work in the real world of casinos helped me conserve my bankroll and even come out ahead more times than not. It is easy to read and understand. This book is a must for all gamblers, especially blackjack players. Enjoy!

Taking advantage of bonuses offered by online casinos

Blackjack: A Winners Handbook has some very useful strategies even for those who are not located near a casino by taking advantage of bonuses offered by online casinos. Due to the heavy competition between the online casinos most offer a bonus for new accounts. Such a bonus might be $50 added to your account for initial $50 deposit. In order to collect the bonus you must wager a certain amount as determined by the casino. The bonus amount and minimum amount wagered vary by casino. Also be aware that often roulette & craps do not count towards the minimum amount that must be wagered in order to collect bonus. Blackjack wagers count at nearly all casinos. Once you have wagered the necessary amount you can then request withdrawal, hopefully at a profit. Just be sure of the rules for bonus and withdrawals which can be found under terms & conditions before you download casino or call the toll free number for the casino. Some casinos also give comps based on amount wagered and credit your account when comps reach a certain level such as $20. Also watch for bonus added to your account if you vote for that casino as casino of the month.

A terrific introduction to the world of blackjack stategy!!

I've read several blackjack books and this one is by far the most entertaining and informative. While every author has their own "winning methods", Jerry Patterson explains the reasoning behind his strategy with easy to understand examples and stories. His conersational approach is refreshing and makes for a quick read. He also writes with the average weekend gambler in mind. This way the reader feels as though they are actually receiving expert advice instead of a "get rich playing blackjack" message. This practical "Handbook" is a must for any blackjack collection.

For those serious about winning at BlackJack!

This book is for those serious about winning (or those wanting to stretch their limited fun time dollars) while playing BlackJack. How many times have you sat at a BlackJack table, like me, only to see the guy next to you winning big time while all your hard earned money is going to the house? It wasn't all that much fun but I didn't know the difference then. More often than not, you say? Then you should read Jerry Pattersons book. Although this subject has been written by many authors offering different points of view (mostly theories or undocumented practices) Jerry puts his years of research into it. His advice is based on practical knowledge gained from years of working experience. Virtually everything you need to know to start winning plus many research secrets revealed. The vast majority of these secrets are unknown to the casual weekend gambler. Now I know the difference, exploit these secrets everytime I play, and stopped losing. I also found it surprizing that most seasoned BlackJack veterans I talk to know little or nothing about these secrets. For example, before reading Jerry's book I was not aware how the game is controlled by the house. Jerry reveals how to avoid these costly mistakes. I once believed every BlackJack table I sat down to play was a potential winning table for me. Not true. Jerry's money management techniques are an absolute must for anyone gambling for fun or $profit$. Jerry explains his research development cycle, talks about his years of trial and error research, and refers to these successful exploitable items he shares as "factors". You will learn about these "factors", what they mean to you and how to exploit them like I have. These "factors" exist all around you in the casino environment. This book is really fun to read. Some very interesting and exciting storys about how some groups and individuals cheated and got caught. This book is not about cheating. His system really works - I've tried and tested it many times and won big! His systematic approach works in all casinos around (Reno, Vegas, Atlantic City, Indian and Provincial Canadian Casinos too), playing basic strategy (single and multiple deck tables are included), how to capitalize on your observances AND use Jerry's research secrets. This book is easily worth 100 or 1000 times the price. While using Jerry's approach to the game I have many times invested no more than $20 just to entertain myself for hours on end. Other times I found a hot table and won as much as $400 on a measly $5 table and did it in just 45 minutes! His approach to the game is now my defacto standard for playing BlackJack. This book is fresh and right on track. Thank you Jerry Patterson for telling us how to Win at BlackJack. I am just a weekend gambler.
