5.0 out of 5 stars blackjack counting for dummies, 7 Nov 2005

By	mark bamford (reading, berks United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

In the best possible way this book could be sub-titled "Blackjack for Dummies". It takes complete beginners from zero to competent-counter in a series of achievable steps. It is written in a very helpful but non-patronising style, using graphics rather than tables wherever possible. You can see it is based on all the usual math but you don't need to understand it to learn the method. Being an 'unbalanced' method it automaticaly takes progression through the pack into account and thus avoids the need for count converion (if you didn't understand that you'll need the book!!).
You should probably complement this one with Casino-deportment-type books such as 'BlackJack Attack' by Don Schlesinger or 'BlackJack Secrets' by Wong. Their philosophy is to win but do it in a way as to be welcomed back next time.
Final word of warning: all counting methods take maybe 100+ hours of practice at the kithcen table, and i would recommend with also with training software: all this to give you maybe an approx edge of around 1% over the House. But at least you know you're in control!!

2.0 out of 5 stars A very badly written book, 19 Aug 1999

By A Customer

This is one of the most poorly written books I have ever read. The system is quite simple and could be explained clearly in a few pages of charts, but the authors have no idea how to make a clear explanation. It would take a conscious effort to make a simple idea any more confusing than has been done in KO Blackjack.

Unfortunately, while the KO count system appears to be a good one -- combining ease of use with a fair amount of power -- the authors make it as difficult to learn as possible. There is a fair amount of information for beginners but, again, this information is better-presented in other volumes.

I would strongly recommend that players at all levels go to another book. Advanced players will want a more powerful system, such as Omega II or Revere. Beginning-intermediate players might well want to use the KO system, but it's a lot easier to understand other simple systems such as Red 7.

Nothing here against the KO system, which is a good one, or Ken Fuchs, who is reported to be a very nice guy and a learned and helpful blackjack expert. But I wouldn't buy this book unless it comes out in a second edition with a complete rewrite.
