Online Blackjack News - "You've Got Heat" -- A First Person Narrative
|
|
Research Gaming Limited announced today the publication of a new nonfiction book entitled You"ve Got Heat – The Vegas Card Counting Adventures of LV Pro by Barfarkel. What started out as this first-time author"s desire to get free Las Vegas vacations and make money gambling at the same time, has manifested itself into a personal narrative spanning the last four years during which he has evolved from a typical clueless gambler into a feared advantage player in this entertaining collection of trip reports.
Originally posted online on Henry Tamburin"s Blackjack Insider Newsletter, these twenty-six articles have been compiled in chronological order so as to follow the author"s early efforts as part of several blackjack teams, and his later solo efforts in building his bankroll steadily over time using tried and true card counting advantage techniques. Along the way, he discovers an entire underground advantage player community online, as he makes new friends with the "smart money" professional gamblers while earning a steady income gambling and gaining free Vegas vacations – in short, living out the American Dream.
Even though card counting is legal and a perfectly legitimate advantage technique, the casino personnel hate card counters and constantly try to identify and stop them from playing blackjack. This cat-and-mouse game between casinos and card counters has been going on for over forty years, ever since Edward Thorpe wrote Beat the Dealer in 1962. The author uses his online handle Barfarkel, rather than his real name, because he wants to be able to continue playing blackjack in Las Vegas. Barfarkel"s nom-de-plume on Tamburin"s Blackjack Insider Newsletter website is LV Pro, though they are one and the same person.
Drawing upon his personal experiences, the author maps general principles for building a bankroll and earning steady income at blackjack that anyone can follow. Card counting is a discipline, like karate, and requires hours of practice. Throughout this enlightening narrative, Barfarkel shows how any average guy or gal can become the odds-on favorite to win money and at the same time earn comped Vegas vacations with a modicum of math skills, perseverance and character.
