Synopsis

Through 20 years of playing, studying, and thinking about Blackjack, I have witnessed a recurring clash between some of the players. On one side of the debate, we have the advantage players. They are the ones who are able to back up and see the big picture. They are able to see beyond the short-term fluctuations in the same way that the gambling industry itself does to obtain a mathematical advantage. For them, the game is a means to an end, and they are not concerned with having fun unless it leads to long-term profit.

On the other side, we have the voodoo players. They may know that advantage players have a long-term advantage, but they may also know that card counting is difficult to master, does not guarantee that you will win, takes some of the fun out of the game, and can get you kicked out of casinos. Voodoo players who use strategies can be divided into two categories.

One category consists of voodoo players who use strategies that can lead to the instant gratification of a large payout. They want what they want when they want it and they don’t want to wait for it. For them, the game is about having fun and they know what is possible in the short term, regardless of the odds. The other category consists of those who prefer to avoid losing, even if it means sacrificing the possible thrill of a big win. They know that it is no fun to lose money and are perfectly satisfied with a small win or breaking even. They take more of a defensive approach to playing and hope to avoid a losing streak that wipes them out.

Rather than choosing a side and defending it, I have created a bridge between the voodoo player in the second category and the advantage player. This is where my personal journey has led me, and it is the inspiration for this work.
