The mastery of the Blackjack Freedom system will soon enable you to count cards in any casino and become an advantage player as skilled as any of those in the game’s colorful history. This book is a four-part lesson that will provide you with the tools to embark on a career as a professional Blackjack player and enjoy all of the freedom that comes with it.
Part 1 is an overview of what card counting is, specifically the Hi-Lo count, which Blackjack Freedom employs. If you are a novice to the game, this is required reading. If you are an experienced player and are already a skilled practitioner of Hi-Lo, you may find this a helpful review.
Part 2 is a mathematical and practical explanation of Blackjack Freedom itself, its key differences from other systems, and why these differences make it simpler yet no less powerful. Also in this section is a table derived from the Blackjack Freedom system. It provides Running Count sequences which correspond to a given number of decks that have been dealt from the shoe. The table must be memorized, but it is only eleven lines of information.
Part 3 is the strategy to use given specific counts per deck. In other words, it tells you when to draw, stand, split, double, surrender, or take insurance. It too must be committed to memory, but it and the table from Part 2 all fit neatly on a 2-sided 3 x 5 card. This is the same card that I use to this day.
Finally, Part 4 details everything I have learned playing Blackjack professionally since 2001, including what to expect starting out, how to stay calm, what rules variations to look for, tips to avoid detection by casino staff, what kind of bankroll you’ll require, and other essential pieces of information. I know you’re probably as eager to get started as I was when I first developed the system, so let’s begin.
