You know today I am known, although I wouldn't say famous, but I am known on the internet
as a poker player. In a past life, if you will, when I was younger but still an adult,
I played blackjack rather seriously. Now I have to say I'm pretty happy that I got caught
up in the poker boom because frankly, blackjack was pretty taxing trying to play it on a profitable
basis. But the good news is the correct play for blackjack pretty much got hardwired into
me. If you look at a strategy card that you can buy in a gift shop in pretty much any
casino you go to around the United States, you can basically learn, memorize that strategy
card, and you'll be playing the best strategy, basic strategy for blackjack, giving yourself
the best opportunity to win. But the thing to think about is if you do that, and if you
follow the advice in these videos, you're giving yourself the best opportunity, but
you'll still be at a disadvantage in the long run. So concentrate on learning blackjack
to play for fun the next time you go on a casino jaunt. Don't think of it as a way to
make money because frankly, it's very hard to be a winning blackjack player and it's
virtually impossible if all you're doing is playing basic strategy. Let's play blackjack.
