¿This true story will take the reader on a scary ride through the trials and tribulations of a card cheater on the run. Las Vegas is a gambling mecca that lures in tourists from all over the world, each trying to win money at their favorite casino game. The game of Blackjack or "21" is played by more tourists than any other casino game. Jerry Reedy, the author of this true story, was introduced to a group of blackjack players shortly after he got out of college. This group of country boys from the northwest was led by one man named Steve Kammeyer (the Boss). The Boss developed a system in blackjack based on knowing what the dealer’s hole card was. This type of activity is absolutely forbidden in Las Vegas, but this group was tough to detour.

With the help of the easy-to-master steps in this book, even a novice gambler can go from being a traditional blackjack player to a card counter--an advantage player with a true edge over the house. For a dozen years, Frank Scoblete was a devastating card-counter, consistently beating casinos in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Tunica, Mississippi and angering the casino bosses by knowing more about how to win money than almost anyone who ever challenged a casino. He employed sophisticated methods, including card-counting and little-known advantage-play techniques to turn the tables on the house. Now Frank, known as an icon of the gambling industry, shares with readers everything he knows about beating casinos at blackjack, including techniques for one, two, four, six, and eight deck games such as "end play," "the fat finger method," "card groupings," and several card counting systems that are easy to learn, but powerful and effective to play. I Am a Card Counter is an essential resource for any gambler looking to succeed at the blackjack table.

Many books have been written about Blackjack-- by far the most popular table game in casinos throughout the world-- covering its strategies, systems and rules. A largely untapped area is the game as it is played in Atlantic City. Though this book offers information and pointers toward winning Blackjack in any of the world's casinos, whether they be in Nevada, Europe or the Islands, it is aimed primarily at the Atlantic City player. The casinos along the boardwalk play with a six deck shuffle, usually "burning" up to 10% of the cards (taking them out of play). "Winning Blackjack in Atlantic City and Around the World" is for the beginner or intermediate player who would like to learn the game, avoid the pitfalls of miscalculation, manage money better and improve his or her calculating skills.
